Vin Diesel announces third 'Riddick' film, TV series The film is set in space when a Chinese and American task force venture to Jupiter's moon Europa to awaken an astronaut from a cryogenic stasis, some 24 years after he was attacked by alien creatures in Europa's sub-glacial seas. He then has to be reunited with his wife and a daughter he has never met. "It is very unusual to find a film of this genre which has been certified and approved by China Film Co-Production Corporation, and which has a female Chinese lead character, not a supporting role," said Chicorel. The movie will be shot in Australia and China's island province of Hainan. "The science will be very real and not overly futuristic. The sci-fi should not distract from the very human story," Das said.
