Selene’s Back In Underworld: Blood Wars Trailer

Kate Beckinsale is back in black… in ‘Underworld: Blood Wars’.

A new trailer has appeared online for the upcoming ‘Underworld’ sequel. Starring Kate Beckinsale in the iconic role of Selene, it looks as though she’s back with a vengeance… as well as a bit of blonde in her hair.

But will the bloodthirsty Lycans sink their claws into her?

‘Underworld: Blood Wars’ is a strange beast - originally meant to be a reboot which wouldn’t have starred Kate Beckinsale, it instead developed into more of a straight sequel. And the plot of the upcoming vampire adventure flick might seem a tad familiar, too.

‘Game of Thrones’ star Tobias Menzies stars as Marius - leader of the Lycan clan which is hot on Selene’s tail. What do they want? Apparently, they think that her blood can make them invincible to the vampires and their Death Dealers. It’s a premise that’s very similar to the original movie, in which the Lycans are in pursuit of the blood of Michael Corvin to create a powerful Lycan/Vampire hybrid.

What is it with werewolves and blood?

This time around though, it looks as though they might actually succeed with their dastardly plan. At least, if the final shot of the trailer is anything to go by. After all, they seem pretty surprised to see Selene at this point, and sporting a very different hairdo. Presumably this is to help differentiate resurrected super-Selene from regular, old vampy Selene.

“Underworld: Blood Wars follows Vampire death dealer, Selene (Kate Beckinsale) as she fends off brutal attacks from both the Lycan clan and the Vampire faction that betrayed her,” reads the official synopsis. “With her only allies, David (Theo James) and his father Thomas (Charles Dance), she must stop the eternal war between Lycans and Vampires, even if it means she has to make the ultimate sacrifice.”

‘Underworld: Blood Wars’ heads to cinemas on 3 February 2017.
