For all the ridiculous zaniness in Liam Neeson's action-thriller Unknown, the writers of that implausible yet enjoyable flick (Oliver Butcher and Stephen Cornwell) have pitched an idea to Vin Diesel. No one knows anything about the project, however; not the title, the story...anything. The word from Variety is that it will be similar to Neeson's mega-hit Taken and the aforementioned Unknown.

As the musclebound motorhead celebrates his latest project's box office success, it all seems too good to be true. Fast and Furious 6 is in the works, along with the third Riddick, which starts filming in Canada in September.

This new untitled unknown project is already being fast-tracked, so expect more to develop the closer we get to 2012.
