This is the best summary I could come up with:


Vin Diesel is officially returning to the world of Pitch Black and galactic antihero Riddick, the sci-fi action franchise that gave the actor his first major leading role.

Diesel stars and produces the film, which reteams him with David Twohy, the filmmaker who has directed all of the franchise’s previous entries.

Pitch Black, released by Universal in 2000, introduced Diesel as a captured criminal that, along with several other passengers, crash lands on a planet where sundown unleashes feral monsters.

The deal resulted in the 2013 entry Riddick, which brought the series back to its more modest, creature feature roots.

In Furya, which Diesel and Twohy have been developing and teasing since 2014, Riddick finally returns to his homeworld, a place he barely remembers and one he fears might be left in ruins.

Rocket Science represented the international sales rights and has completed worldwide cornerstone pre-sales to a slew of territories, including UK (yet to be announced), France (Metropolitan), Germany (Leonine), Spain and Latin America (Sun), Benelux (The Searchers), Poland (Kinoswiat), Canada (Elevation), Scandinavia (Scanbox), Portugal (Lusomundo), Switzerland (Ascot Elite), South Africa (Empire), Greece (Femeway), Middle East (Front Row), CIS and Baltic States (Volga), Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Czech/Slovak, Republic Former Yugoslavia (ProRom) and Thailand (Sahamongkhol).
