xXx: State of the Union

After the original xXx superspy Xander Cage (played by Vin Diesel) is reportedly killed in Bora Bora (by Lt.Col Cobb's strike team which can be seen in the Director's Cut release), imprisoned former US Navy SEAL Darius Stone (played by Ice Cube) is selected by Agent Augustus Gibbons (played by Samuel L. Jackson) to be the next xXx. Gibbons and his new agent travel to Washington D.C., where they track a splinter faction of the U.S. military that attempts to overthrow the U.S. government and assassinate the President, led by Secretary of Defense and former 4-Star General George Deckert, Stone's former commanding officer (played by Willem Dafoe) whom he once led a mutiny against.

A man is tending an equine farm when he discovers dead bodies, and is killed by an assailant himself. Meanwhile, attacks use special explosives to break into an NSA bunker beneath the equine farm. There, NSA Agent Gibbons fends off the attackers before barely escaping himself. Lt.Col Cobb is later revealed to be responsible for the attack on the bunker.

Later, Gibbons poses as Stone's lawyer and makes a deal with him in prison. Stone, who had been in prison for assaulting Deckert, makes a daring escape. Stone is later told to recover a hard drive from the NSA bunker, while trying to escape Agent Kyle at the same time, and is rescued by Gibbons' assistant, Toby Lee Shavers. Some time later, Gibbons appears to be attacked in his home and killed, with Deckert to covering up the plot. Afterwards, Stone meets up with Gibbons' contact Charlie to get information and go to her safe house, but is set up to look like Stone murdered 3-Star General Pettibone, whom Cobb and Charlie actually killed.

Police arrive, and Agent Kyle enters the house and makes a deal with Stone, while Toby later hacks into the NSA to retrieve Deckert's plans. At some time, Stone is arrested by Deckert's troops aboard an aircraft carrier and discovers Gibbons is not dead, but being held prisoner by Deckert. Stone is discovered by Charlie, Gibbons orders him to escape and leave him. Before escaping Stone has a run in with Cobb and it is revealed that Deckert is trying to overthrow the President.

Stone along with Toby enlist the aid of some of his former gang members to fight Deckert's force. After carjacking a tank, Stone helps Kyle and some agents infiltrate the Capitol building. After some gunfights (in which Charlie is killed by a liberated Gibbons), Deckert with Cobb abducts the President while he is making the State of the Union Address. They escape on a bullet train.

Stone pursues the bullet train with a custom 2003 Cobra Concept Car and after blowing Cobb up, fights Deckert while helping the president escape in an adjacent helicopter. Stone leaps from the fleeting train while Gibbons destroys it with a missile, effectively killing Deckert. The flaming wreckage from the train lights Stone in a silhouette as he dives into the river below, narrowly avoiding the wreckage that plunges in after him.

The President awards Agent Kyle and the Unknown Soldier (Stone) as Stone goes back to his lifestyle. Deckert receives full honours at his funeral, somewhat to Stone's disgust. He and Lola part with her leaving him the Mustang he drives off the xXx tattoo on the back of his neck can be seen.

The Film ends at a cliffhanger just as Gibbons is about to reveal the next candidate for the third xXx.
