Vin Diesel Won’t Do ‘xXx’ Sequel

It looks like Vin Diesel is backing out of ‘xXx: The Return of Xander Cage’. Director Rob Cohen (The Fast and the Furious) apparently has also quit the film and now lesser-known moviemaker Ericson Core (Invincible) will direct. No word on why Diesel suddenly backed out.

Diesel starred in the first xXx film but did not return for the sequel, which had Ice Cube in the title role.
