There’s no better way to chill out from intense xXx filming than in Casa de Campo. Vin Diesel knows how to do it best with skate boarding, working out, and logging afternoons at the beach. Shooting for “The Return of Xander Cage” continues in the DR, with a first look at the set coming from La Zona Colonial in Santo Domingo last weekend. Check out the actor’s cool videos and pictures below:

As for the role, Vin posted this on his Facebook account to express what it means to him: It has been fifteen years since I have embodied the character of Xander Cage. The smile you see on my face is real and reflective of the joy that comes from returning to a role that was so important and rewarding to me.” Paramount has set the xXx film release date for Jan. 20, 2017!
