Riddick is a 2013 science fiction action film written and directed by David Twohy, based on the character Richard B. Riddick by Jim and Ken Wheat. It is the third installment in The Chronicles of Riddick film series and a sequel to both Pitch Black (2000) and The Chronicles of Riddick (2004).
Left for dead on a sun-scorched planet, Riddick finds himself up against an alien race of predators. Activating an emergency beacon alerts two ships: one carrying a new breed of mercenary, the other captained by a man from Riddick's past.
Weirdly tense and beautifully bleak, Pitch Black introduces Richard B. Riddick (Diesel), a notorious criminal with surgically altered eyesight, being transported on a prison ship. When meteorite debris crashes the vessel onto a barren planet, those on board must rely on Riddick's murderous instincts and his ability to see in the dark to survive.
