Vin Diesel has revealed a few details about his forthcoming third Chronicles Of Riddick movie. The actor posted a message on his official Facebook page explaining that his next outing as the intergalactic alien-killing criminal will see him taking on a variety of different looks.

He wrote: "[Director David Twohy] has a new challenge in store. He wants me to have three different body looks for this next chapter… there is the DiNorscio type, the Dom type, and the lean Furyan type… but all in the same movie."

He added: "When it comes to art, we all like a challenge."

The Fast And Furious star last played the Riddick character in 2004's The Chronicles Of Riddick.

Diesel will appear in the fifth Fast And Furious movie next year. He's also lined up to star in XXX: The Return of Xander Cage.
