XXx Reactivated: Diesel Wine in 5 Key Roles!

Cinema 18 January, 2017

Vin Diesel is making its big comeback in the skin of Xander Cage in xXx: Reactivated. For the occasion, we return to five of its most important key roles!
You hoped for it, you expected it, there it is! Xander Cage is back in cinemas in xXx: Reactivated , the third installment of the license launched in 2002. And it is obviously that Vin Diesel reprises his role as the athlete of the extreme become CIA agent. Needless to say that the character and the actor have lost none of their power … or their taste for risky stunts (that’s an understatement) and the insane actions . As we suspected, so, Vin Diesel is THE star of this xXx: Reactivated , acceptance still share with a strong team including where there are Donnie Yen and Deepika Padukone. For although he played only once Cage’s role, it is still part of the characters who have marked and shaped his career as actor. But as it is not the only one – and that the release of a movie with Vin Diesel is always an event – the editorial ‘of melty back on five key roles it has been interpreted in film during his life .
Dom Toretto
It obviously starts with Dominic ” Dom ” Toretto, the character he plays in the saga Fast and Furious . And Dom, Vin Diesel knows him well since he has been lending his features for over fifteen years now. Finally, with a small pause between 2001 and 2009. However, his return in the fourth film of the franchise marks the renewal of it. And Dom has probably become one of the heroes of hardcore action films. At the same time, how could not we have loved this character not true? Not only the guy is crazy and takes all the risks, facing the most unlikely situations at the wheel of his car, but in addition, there is nothing he would not do for his people . Although he is a criminal, he remains an honorable criminal! Finally, all that could change in Fast and Furious 8 since Dom seems to turn against his family . But hey, we are ready to (almost) forgive everything!
Xander Cage
Crazier, more daredevil than Dom, is not possible? Well, what! In the ” sick man of extreme, adrenaline junkie ,” so there’s Xander Cage, Vin Diesel began to incarnate in 2002 in the first xXx . It is very simple, this guy is a crazy! While he did not ask anyone – except that he was allowed to risk his life as a professional stuntman – he was recruited by an NSA agent, Augustus Gibbons (Samuel L. Jackson), and who find themselves overnight playing the agents infiltrated with a group of terrorists. But hey, the more the situation is dangerous, more Xander gets off . And we once again proves this xXx: Reactivated, skiing dangerously in the jungle , facing a fighter as strong as him and putting his life on the line every time. Fortunately, on this one, he is not alone and he can count on a shock team. But let it be said, it is he, the most crazy and the most effective of all (and who best wears the coat of fur …)!
Richard B. Riddick
We forget fairly often, but even before becoming Dom Toretto on camera Rob Cohen Vin Diesel had already lent his features another hero badass of a franchise SF very dark : Richard B. Riddick . And again, the character of the actor is a sort of anti-hero who fuck more the funk to his companions than he really reassures them! It must be said that with his scowl, his protruding muscles and his strange eyes hidden behind dark glasses, he has something to impress. But unlike Dom and Xander, who remain quite positive character, Riddick, he is rather violent kind and does not care too much for those around him . Vin Diesel will play three times the powerful mercenary between 2000 and 2013, even giving voice to the animated film The Chronicles of Riddick: Dark Fury .
Shane Wolfe
When we call Shane Wolfe, we belong to the Navy Seals and we eat the terrorist at breakfast, looking after five kids should not be a big challenge. Well, think again! In The Pacifier (2005), an action comedy which was a great success at the box office on its release, Vin Diesel plays … nannies. But be careful, not just any nanny! For Shane is of course on the cover to find a secret program on which worked a government agent. But then, the rebels and not very cooperative children it makes him see all the colors . So to be accepted, Shane must teach driving to one, teach Scouts to defend themselves and eventually even convert to the theater. And that while confronting ninjas out of nowhere. What is certain is that with The Pacifier , Vin Diesel does not take itself seriously at all!
Groot
And when he does not play the big guys or antihero badass , Vin Diesel is engaged in the exercise of dubbing! That’s how we find him in the cast of the Guardians of the Galaxy in the role of Groot, the talking tree. There, it is not a matter of giving bounces or jumping into the void (whatever …) but rather giving life to a creature only constituted in CGI. And it must be admitted that the actor does not get too badly! With one sentence – ” I called Groot ” – he manages to convey the emotions of our adorable Groot and succeeded (almost) to be understood. So, we wait to hear the baby voice Groot in Guardians of the Galaxy 2 , knowing that Vin Diesel will make it as tough as cute! In which of these roles did you prefer it?
