UPDATE: A Return to the 'Underworld' with a Fourth Film in 3-D
Saturday, August 8, 2009

Update: B-D has learned that Screen Gems will release the film in theaters January 21, 2011. Sony Screen Gems must have been happy with the whopping $91m worldwide box office for Underworld: Rise of the Lycans, their prequel to the vampires vs werewolf franchise created by Len Wiseman back in 2003, as the studio is moving forward with a fourth film aimed to hit theaters in January 2011, reports Shocktillyoudrop. To continue a smart trend in Hollywood, the fourth film will be arriving in theaters in 3-D (you can't bootleg 3-D, can ya'?). No word on if Michael Sheen, Bill Nighy, Rhona Mitra, Kate Beckinsale or Scott Speedman will return to the franchise, but it's probably safe to say Patrick Tatopoulos' company will be behind the FX again.

I really liked the prequel, but I really hope this is a sequel to Underworld Evolution!

Though Evolution was ended rather openly, I would like to see what other stories this 'verse contains. Though I do recall a story talking about a possible TV series? Either way, glad to see this is continuing!

if they did the prequel then this one could be more in the future where the balance of power has shifted. or a third supernatural power comes into play.

Scott Speedman might not be in it? Wal-mart wont give him the days off to shoot?

AWESOME! i loved all 3 movies and i welcome a 4th (but i REALLY wish it wasn't going to be in 3D. 3D is a gimmick/novelty to me that THIS type of movie really doesn't need to be good/great.)

I kinda dug the last one, but I would love to see them get back to Kate Beckinsale and the rest of the modern-day vamps. And for all the haters... would you rather see another Underworld, where at least they stick to the rule of vampires and werewolves... or another damned Twilight sequel? But drop the 3D, for the love of all things holy. It's okay in theaters, but until they finally get it right at home, the whole thing becomes kinda pointless. Not every movie that is released this year and next need be in 3D.

A 4th Underworld? and why in 3d? those movies were good enough without 3d.

Im all for another Underworld film, I love the first three. As some others are saying though, I would rather it NOT be in 3D. Its cool in the theater, but 3D on DVD and Blu-Ray sucks! Im just not into 3D all that much anyways. Hope Kate can return for this installment.

Underworld is freaking awesome! I hope Kate Beckinsale comes back!

ok im getting really sick of everything being 3d i hate it. it was cool back then when maybe you get 1 3d movie a year but now every1 wants to do it they focus more on the 3d part than the story. i quit movies if the next saw turns out to be 3d

That news just made my day. Love the franchise. Also hope it goes back to modernity, even though the third was probably the best.

I just REALLY REALLY hope 'Kate Beck' comes back, 3D isn't a bad thing, I for one don't mind it at all, besides its like some people don't know that in most theatres u have the option, in 3D or 2D.

How many movies that are made to be viewed in 3D actually translate into a decent 2D experience? Usually when moviemakers pander to the 3D tech, the entire movie uses the gimmick and quite obviously needs to be seen in, you guessed it, 3D. There's no way, if given a choice between seeing it in 3D as it's intended or seeing it 2D and wondering why so many things are being aimed at the screen, I'm going to see it without glasses. Either figure out a way to recreate the experience at home, or stop making so many damned 3D movies!
