xXx — official trailer

What is xXx about?

Xander Cage is your standard adrenaline junkie with no fear and a lousy attitude. When the US Government "recruits" him to go on a mission, he's not exactly thrilled. His mission: to gather information on an organization that may just be planning the destruction of the world, led by the nihilistic Yorgi.

XXX is a 2002 American action thriller film starring Vin Diesel as Xander Cage, a thrill-seeking extreme sports enthusiast, stuntman, and rebellious athlete-turned-reluctant spy for the National Security Agency who is sent on a dangerous mission to infiltrate a group of potential Russian terrorists in Central Europe. The first installment in the xXx film series, the film was directed by Rob Cohen, produced by Neal H. Moritz and written by Rich Wilkes. The film also stars Asia Argento, Marton Csokas, and Samuel L. Jackson.
