xXx 2: The Next Level

Sequel to Vin Diesel's 2002 actioner xXx, this time with Ice Cube in the lead role and Lee Tamahori in the director's chair. Cube plays Darius Stone, a thrill-seeking troublemaker whose criminal record and extreme sports obsession make him the perfect candidate to be the newest, bad-ass triple-X agent. His task: save the U.S. government from a deadly conspiracy led by five-star general and Secretary of Defense George Deckert (Willem Dafoe). Samuel L. Jackson returns from xXx.
