Kate Beckinsale Is Returning For Underworld 5

Kate Beckinsale

A reboot of the Underworld franchise is in the works, with a script from Cory Goodman (Priest). We didn't quite know what that meant for series star Kate Beckinsale who made her return for the fourth installment, a film which practically served as a soft reboot of the brand.

Fortunately for fans of the series which began in 2003, both Kate Beckinsale and Theo James are indeed coming back. Lakeshore and Sony Screen Gems are still working away on another Underworld and are still using Goodman's script, which we can only assume wasn't really a reboot to begin with.

Things got confusing when Len Wiseman, Beckinsale's husband and original director, announced at New York Comic-Con that a Beckinsale-focused sequel was happening separate from a spinoff with Theo James and that in addition to the two film projects, a TV series was also in the works.

There's been no news since but what we now know for certain: Kate Beckinsale is locked in to return as the badass vampire warrior Selene and Theo James is currently attached as well since he was optioned for another from his contract for Underworld 4. There may just be one movie in development for the time being. Underworld 5 will likely release late 2016 or January 2017.

ভোটের অধিকার আদায়ে জনগণকে রাস্তায় নামতে হবে: ফখরুল

‘যুবকরা এখনো জানে না ভোট কী। আমাদের আওয়ামী লীগের ভাইরা ভোটটা দিয়েছেন, বলে দিয়েছেন—তোরা আসিবার দরকার নাই, মুই দিয়ে দিনু। স্লোগান ছিল—আমার ভোট আমি দিব, তোমার ভোটও আমি দিব।’
