Vin Diesel Hints at Last Witch Hunter Sequel, Potential Franchise

Vin Diesel isn’t the shy and retiring type when it comes to promoting himself and his movies, so it’s no surprise that, despite the movie not being released until October, studio buzz from Lionsgate Entertainment surrounding his latest film, The Last Witch Hunter, is so positive the actor took to Facebook to announce a potential sequel.

Diesel posted underneath a promotional image for the film that: “The studio apparently is so excited by the Last Witch Hunter - The Axe and Cross franchise... that they are already commencing on the next one. The first one doesn't hit theaters until October 23rd, yet they want me to commit and already block out time to film it.”

This isn’t the first time a potential Last Witch Hunter franchise has been proposed. During an earnings call last year, Lionsgate CEO Jon Feltheimer told investors that such a move was a possibility if the first movie was successful.

It's also far from the first time that Diesel has used Facebook to tease future movie plans; he has famously dropped hints about more than one future Marvel Studios project on the site.

The Last Witch Hunter is released 23rd October.
