Surprise! Ice Cube Returns to the XXX Franchise in New Spot for XXX: RETURN OF XANDER CAGE
"X takes care of its own."
It was just revealed in a new TV spot for xXx: Return of Xander Cage that Ice Cube will be reprising his role from xXx: State of the Union. It's pretty incredible that the studio managed to keep this a secret for so long. I think it's something that they should've held on to until people went and saw the movie as it would have been a cool surprise for the fans of the franchise.
There's no indication of how big of a role Cube will have in the film, but I imagine it won't be very big. He'll probably come in to kick a little ass then leave. Hell, this little bit in the trailer might very well be the extent of his involvement! We'll just have to wait and see.
Extreme athlete turned government operative Xander Cage (Vin Diesel) comes out of self-imposed exile, thought to be long dead, and is set on a collision course with deadly alpha warrior Xiang (Donnie Yen) and his team in a race to recover a sinister and seemingly unstoppable weapon known as Pandora's Box. Recruiting an all-new group of thrill-seeking cohorts, Xander finds himself enmeshed in a deadly conspiracy that points to collusion at the highest levels of world governments.
xXx: Return of Xander Cage is set to be released on January 20, 2017.
