First image of Vin Diesel in the new Riddick

Gradually we are going to know more details of the next film in the Riddick franchise, which means that finally the production is ongoing and that sooner or later we will have a new installment of the adventures of this peculiar character. Although originally all pointed to there would be no more, that the producers not gambled by more installments, seems that Vin Diesel has made enough pressure to get the fans of the series can enjoy one more. At the very least.
And that the work is in the throes of shooting, where the first image has already been published. As long as we have heard the tape, has been the own actor which has been commissioned to hang it on your Facebook page, and is that Diesel knows very well take care of his fans and therefore cares himself to keep them informed, whatever may be the news.
What is clear is that this third installment will follow a very continuity line in relation to the previous two. Not only because repeated the same actor protagonist, but also will have the same writer and director: David Twohy. If we consider what we can see in the image, it seems that nor will there be too many new features as the central character, which will still carry their sunglasses characteristics of Sun and promises action and spectacular scenes at the height of the franchise.
The negative part of production is that being carried out independently to any Studio. This has a good part and one negative: on the one hand is the part that the artists will have total freedom to do whatever they want with the story and the film, given that they only have to restrict money which have, however they depend on the other hand on this budget for everything, which can lead to problems such as delays in filming or cancellations. Why have not made public a possible release date.
