THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER is reporting the first story details on RIDDICK. The third installment in the series, which began with Vin Diesel, will star Pitch Black.

Billed as a back-to-basics approach to the main character, the script pegs the character as the most wanted man in the galaxy who's left for dead on a barren alien plant, according to THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER.

David Twohy is attached to direct and is writing the script.
