This should cheer you up on this horrible October morning quality-deficient vampires vs werewolves horror franchise Underworld is about to become a trilogy!
Yes, Underworld 3 is on its way. This one is going to be called The Rise Of The Lycans and as is the norm these days is going to be a prequel, because we really wanted to know more about the characters in the first two films, apparently. That is to say, we apparently really wanted to know more about the characters in the first two films who werent Kate Beckinsale or Scott Speedman, because theyre not returning, along with Beckinsales husband Len Wiseman, who directed the first two films.
For this film will focus on the origins of Lucian, the chief werewolf sorry, Lycan - played in the first film by the brilliant Michael Sheen, and his clash with Bill Nighys Death Dealer vampire king, Viktor. (Guys, how could you? Are your mortgage repayments piling up? Why not call Picture theyll give you #25,000 without any trouble, and youll find that scooter youve been looking for as well)
Along the way, Lucian will fall in love with a girl named Sonja (played by Rhona Mitra and her two friends) although, given that she doesnt crop up in the previous two Underworlds, were guessing that she gets bumped off, thus giving Lucian what we in the business call motivation.
In case youre still reading and still care, Underworld: The Rise Of The Lycans will be directed by Patrick Tatapoulos, the creature designer on the first two movies. Wiseman hasnt left entirely hell produce for Screen Gems, along with some bods from Lakeshore Entertainment.
Danny McBride wrote the screenplay. Well add no further comment.
