Are you ready more more Riddick? Didn't think so, but he's coming anyway. Moviehole is reporting that casting has begun for what is called a "direct sequel to Pitch Black," but acknowledges the events of The Chronicles of Riddick. Here is the synopsis of the film...
Betrayed by his own kind and left for dead on a desolate planet, Riddick (Diesel) fights for survival against alien predators and becomes more powerful and dangerous than ever before. Soon bounty hunters from throughout the galaxy descend on Riddick only to find themselves pawns in his greater scheme for revenge. With his enemies right where he wants them, Riddick unleashes a vicious attack of vengeance before returning to his home planet of Furya to save it from destruction.
Yikes! Look, I liked Pitch Black. It was a different concept and Riddick was cool. But I thought that would be it. I never expected one sequel involving the character. But I've been wrong before. It quite honestly sounds like they are going back to what was successful in the first film. And not even Dame Judi Dench can help him.
