MANILA, Philippines – Vin Diesel heads back into the action-filled high-octane spectacle that is the xXx movies. After sitting it out for the sequel, State of the Union, Vin Diesel heads back into the role of thrill seeker-slash-spy Xander Cage.
"The world has changed. The world we're fighting today needs a different kind of soldier," says Augustus Eugene Gibbons, National Security Agency (NSA) agent, in the teaser trailer for xXx: Return of Xander Cage.
Xander is back in the game. Like the daredevil that he is, he skis through a jungle and even motorcycles over high waves.
"Guns, girls, global domination. Xander Cage is back," says Ruby Rose's character, Adele Wolff.
Ariadna Gutiérrez, Colombia's representative to Miss Universe 2015 and 1st runner-up in the pageant, also appears in the teaser trailer.
She shared the clip on Instagram:

It was previously announced that Ariadna would join the cast that includes Samuel L. Jackson, Nina Dobrev, Toni Collette, and Bollywood star Deepika Padukone, UFC Featherweight Champion Connor McGregor, and martial arts star Donnie Yen (known for his role in Ip Man and soon, Chirrut Îmwe in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story)
Ariadna previously came into the spotlight after she was mistakenly announced as the winner of the Miss Universe pageant by Steve Harvey in December 2015. The Philippines' Pia Wurtzbach was declared as the actual winner.
Following the pageant, Ariadna admitted that she felt humiliated by the experience. In January, she and Steve finally spoke with each other, and the host personally apologized for his mistake.
