A few days ago we reported that a fourth Underworld film was in the works and that it would be in the magical and ever growing popular format of 3D. Now we are here to tell you that it will be the first part in a new trilogy for the world’s greatest Death Dealer.
Screen Gems is very interested in bringing Selene back for an all new trilogy. Rumors circling the internet is that plans are definitely a go for a part 4, which will probably have some name instead of a number. I have been a huge fan of the series, especially of the first film. I thought it was a very cool and refreshing take on the vampire and werewolf mythos. The look and aesthetic sold me from the very first time I saw a cryptic poster for Kate Beckinsale standing on a rooftop with no idea what the movie was about. I very much liked the second installment as well, although I am still a bit confused by the ending. But the prequel I thought could have been done a bit better.
No word yet has been given if Kate Beckinsale or any of the other supporting cast will return. I just hope they somehow bring Sophia Myles back. There is also no word if creators Len Wiseman, Danny Mcbride, or Kevin Grevioux will have any involvement. I hope they do. I know Len Wiseman has been busy with various projects, including a Gears Of War movie, but it would be cool if they could get him back to direct. We’ll fill you in as we learn more.

well sophia myles did play one of the only allies that selene had in the first two, so depending on how the the political lanscape changed among the vampires and lycans, she could easily come back. it would be nice if she was kicking a little butt also too, and not just for one of these new movies. she was great in Outlander.
I definitely hope all the same people (cast and crew) come back for another trilogy. Selene and Michael are the two strongest figures in their respective factions, so it would be cool to see how they handle that. Will they unite the vampires and lycans? If they have kids, what kind of powers will they have? That could be a cool story to tell.
I am really excited for another Underworld movie. I don't know how interested I'd be though if Kate Beckinsale is not in it. As for the ending of Underworld: Evolution, it eludes to the story continuing with Selene and Michael as hybrids. Remember Selene took Corvinus' blood and injected herself with it so that the last scene shows her standing in the sunlight without it killing her. So, if they continue from there. I will be extremely excited.
Hope they don't re-cast. Either get Beckinsale, or make a new character (and hotter than Mithra, please).
