Making his way into another movie and videogame is Vin Diesel, who’ll star in the upcoming “The Wheelman” feature film from MTV Films and Paramount Pictures, with the game being developed by Midway, in association with Diesel’s Tigon Studios and MTV Games.

The motion picture will star the ‘XXX’ hero as an expert wheelman who comes out of retirement to protect a woman from his past. The script for the project will be worked on by Rich Wilkes, who worked with Diesel on the aforementioned movie. Diesel’s Tigon Films and MTV Films plan to produce the film, with Paramount Pictures intending to release it.

“With The Wheelman we have created the first integrated franchise being launched for both the gaming and film industries,” said Vin Diesel. “In collaborating with Midway, MTV and Paramount, TIGON Studios has brought together an incredible team to execute this project.”

The Wheelman will be the second of three titles under the recently announced strategic relationship between Midway and MTV. Both companies will collaborate in jointly selling in-game advertising and soundtrack development.

No details or platforms were mentioned on the game. Also, no release date was provided, though it is expected to be available at around the same time as the movie… which has no release date yet.
