Things are getting a whole lot busier for Vin Diesel. He has a healthy action franchise in the FAST & FURIOUS, a nearing return to the character that made him a star with RIDDICK and of course, he’s now part of the Marvel stable thanks to confirmed voiceover work on James Gunn’s GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY. That’s also not forgetting supernatural thriller THE LAST WITCHHUNTER, also in-development.
However, we’re now hearing Diesel is adding another potential sci-fi franchise after teaming up with Universal Pictures to star and produce SOLDIERS OF THE SUN. It has script from Arash Amel set in a post-apocalyptic future landscape and follows a legion of troops having to battle with alien race of ‘Orcs’ as they seek out the mystical City Of Gold in Mexico.
What do fans of the gravel-toned hulking star think of this latest project? Do let us know!

Craig was our great north east correspondent, proving that it’s so ‘grim up north’ that losing yourself in a world of film is a foregone prerequisite. He has been studying the best (and often worst) of both classic and modern cinema at the University of Life for as long as he can remember. Craig’s favorite films include THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION, JFK, GOODFELLAS, SCARFACE, and most of John Carpenter’s early work, particularly THE THING and HALLOWEEN.
