In the realm of action film franchises, Vin Diesel is predominantly recognized for his role in the iconic <em>Fast and Furious</em> series. However, many enthusiasts argue that another franchise featuring Diesel is significantly underrated and arguably superior: the Riddick films. This captivating franchise initiated with the groundbreaking Pitch Black at the dawn of the 21st century, followed by the ambitious sequel released in 2004, titled The Chronicles of Riddick, and culminated in 2013 with the self-titled Riddick. Excitingly, fans can anticipate the forthcoming entry in this series, Riddick: Furya, which is currently in development and promises to continue the thrilling narrative of this beloved character.
Interestingly, the third installment of the franchise, released in 2013, is experiencing a resurgence in popularity today, despite its initial lukewarm reception from critics, as indicated by review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes. Nevertheless, Riddick, which features a talented cast including Dave Bautista and The Boys star Karl Urban, has officially secured its place as one of the top ten most-streamed titles on Tubi in the United States as of July 7, 2025. This remarkable achievement coincides with Diesel’s recent hints at the upcoming fourth installment, where he shared an intriguing image on his social media platforms accompanied by the enticing caption: “Incoming… Riddick…”
As of now, Riddick holds the impressive title of the fourth most-streamed film on Tubi. Curious about the current streaming landscape? The tenth position is occupied by the popular third installment of the Hotel Transylvania franchise, while <em>Final Destination 5</em> claims the ninth spot, and the heartfelt drama Message in a Bottle, starring Kevin Costner, sits at eighth. The classic Titanic, directed by James Cameron, ranks seventh, followed closely by the cult classic Scooby-Doo adaptation from 2002 at sixth. Additionally, Zoe Saldaña‘s gripping revenge thriller Colombiana has secured a position in the top five. Notably, Riddick stands proudly at fourth place, with The Quick and the Dead at third, the acclaimed <em>Pulp Fiction</em> at second, and the legendary Tom Hanks-led Forrest Gump currently reigning as the number one streaming title.
