While previous reports make it look as thought the franchise was backing away from Kate Beckinsale’s action hero/killer vampire persona Selene, it now appears as though Kate will be returning to the fray; as not only did Underworld writer/producer Len Wiseman let everyone know she’d be returning last year, she’s now officially signed on to star in Underworld 5.
Officially titled Underworld: Next Generation (something which may change, especially as the title isn’t mentioned in the latest reports), there’s little known about the plot of the upcoming film, though we do know it’s due to be directed by Anna Foerster (the cinematographer/second unit director who’s been building her resume with episodes of Criminal Minds and Outlander, and will make the latest Underworld her first feature), scripted by Cory Goodman (Priest), and will likely involve a fair few vampires and werewolves once filming gets underway this October in Prague.
