EXCLUSIVE: Katee Sackhoff is in final negotiations to play the female lead opposite Vin Diesel in the untitled Chronicles Of Riddick sequel. In the movie, written and directed by David Twohy, the Battlestar Galactica alumna will play Dahl, a Nordic mercenary tracking Riddick (Diesel). Production on the sequel resumed recently in Montreal after a two-month break due to financing issues. Sackhoff, who had long been rumored for the choice for the role, will segue from Riddick to her new A&E series Longmire. The actress, who co-starred on the final season of 24 and did an arc on CSI, has movies Haunting In Georgia and Evil Sexy Genius coming out later this year. She is with Gersh and Bleu.
TV Editor Nellie Andreeva - tip her here.

Perfect choice!
Katee’s gonna be great for this role. Hope she becomes the next big action movie star!
I thought production had stopped on this movie.
Another Riddick movie? I mean come on, guys.
Smart + Talented + Adventurous + Beautiful = Winner!!
Crap! Now i probably have to see it.
Katee Sackhoff is a major turn off. Everyone thought she was a lesbian on Battle Star. She was also a little chubby. At first I liked her and thought is was cool they made Starbuck a female. As the series went on she just made the character a one dimensional grumpy bore.
She had better get into shape, tap some form of sexual femininity. They’re going for an R rating on this one so if they don’t take full use of the R rating and give nudity for the fan boys then they are nuts. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not to excited about seeing Katee Sackhoff nude. Now the actress from the first Riddick movie, but that character died.
Pitch Black is one of the most awesome movies. She has a lot to live up to.
I can’t with this.
Katee is all “The Riddick” will be able to handle… Spitfire actor that woman. Powerful pairing. Love Twohy’s casting choices… or was it Vin’s idea? Hats off to everyone on this franchise. Sci-fi needs an anti-hero and female antagonist!
