Last week we brought you a look at the glorious exclusive Comic-Con one-sheet for Vin Diesel’s return as the ingeniously sight-adjusted serial-killer, Richard B. Riddick. Now we have the slick and simplistic new IMAX poster for the sci-fi sequel directed by David Twohy, which harks back to the brilliant opening sleeper smash PITCH BLACK. RIDDICK features the following official synopsis:
The latest chapter of the groundbreaking saga that began with 2000’s hit sci-fi film Pitch Black and 2004’s The Chronicles of Riddick reunites writer/director David Twohy (A Perfect Getaway, The Fugitive) and star Vin Diesel (the Fast and Furious franchise, xXx). Diesel reprises his role as the antihero Riddick, a dangerous, escaped convict wanted by every bounty hunter in the known galaxy.
The infamous Riddick has been left for dead on a sun-scorched planet that appears to be lifeless. Soon, however, he finds himself fighting for survival against alien predators more lethal than any human he’s encountered. The only way off is for Riddick to activate an emergency beacon and alert mercenaries who rapidly descend to the planet in search of their bounty.
The first ship to arrive carries a new breed of merc, more lethal and violent, while the second is captained by a man whose pursuit of Riddick is more personal. With time running out and a storm on the horizon that no one could survive, his hunters won’t leave the planet without Riddick’s head as their trophy.
RIDDICK co-stars Jordi Molla, Katee Sackhoff, Dave Bautista and a returning Karl Urban, reprising his role of nemesis, Vaako, from 2004s THE CHRONICLES OF RIDDICK, and is slated for cinemas 6th September
