Third Riddick Movie in the Works

Vin Diesel loves a bit of social networking, and this week he's been talking up plans to shoot a third Riddick film this summer.

Here's what he posted on Facebook about the proposed follow-up to Pitch Black and The Chronicles of Riddick.

"DT [David Twohy] the writer/director just landed in New York with the good news. We can start filming this summer. However, there is a catch... in order for us to make a true R-rated film, I must work for scale upfront."

Then rather more cryptically he added "Money is always second to art, integrity and spirit... but the real issue is deeper. Can I suspend my life, to momentarily venture to that dark place... called Riddick."

He followed that post with an update revealing that he was meeting with Twohy to talk schedules and concept art.

So if Diesel can make a deal with the money-men, we could be seeing Riddick return for an ultra-violent flick in 2012.
