XXX: THE RETURN OF XANDER CAGE has added Kris Wu to the cast. He joins previously announced Deepika Padukone, Tony Jaa, Toni Collette, Nina Dobrev, and Ruby Rose as well as returning stars Vin Diesel, Samuel L. Jackson, and Ice Cube. This will be Wu’s first U.S. project.
Plot details are being kept under wraps for the sequel from Paramount. Revolution Studios‘ Vince Totino and Scott Hemming executive produce while Diesel produces through his One Race Films alongside Roth Kirschenbaum Films‘ Joe Roth. DJ Caruso directs from Chad St. John and F. Scott Frazier’s script.
Wu may not be known to American audiences but overseas he currently stars in Stephen Chow’s Mermaid which is expected to be the highest-grossing picture in Chinese history. He is next set for Luc Besson’s Valerian And The City Of A Thousand Planets opposite Dane DeHaan and Cara Delevingne.
He is repped by CAA.
