Starting June 1, 2026, all three films from Vin Diesel‘s cult sci-fi series Riddick have landed on Netflix. The streaming addition includes Pitch Black (2000), The Chronicles of Riddick (2004), and Riddick (2013). The trilogy follows the antihero Richard B. Riddick, an escaped convict with night vision who fights for survival against alien creatures, bounty hunters, and cosmic threats.
Fans of the Fast & Furious star now have a fresh reason to binge the franchise. The movies became available on Netflix US and other regions at the start of the month. Reports also confirm the trilogy climbed into Netflix’s Top 10 films list shortly after its debut.
Complete Riddick Trilogy Now Available for Streaming Worldwide
Pitch Black started it all. The movie is about a spacecraft that crashes on a desert planet. The planet has three suns and is always bright. But when an eclipse happens, deadly creatures come out in the dark. Vin Diesel’s character, Riddick, is a prisoner on the ship. He becomes the only person who can guide the survivors.
The Chronicles of Riddick came out in 2004. It expands the world. Riddick faces a dangerous army called the Necromongers. Dame Judi Dench and Karl Urban join the cast in this sequel.
Riddick (2013) brings the story back to basics. Riddick is left for dead on a harsh planet. He fights alien beasts and bounty hunters who want his head.
Director David Twohy helmed all three movies. The franchise has earned a combined $267 million worldwide. The 2013 film alone made about $98 million against a $38 million budget.
