Underworld: Rise of the Lycans (2009) [No Kate Beckinsale :(]
 
Beckinsale dropped from Underworld 3

An “Underworld 3” is happening.

The bad news? (Yeah, besides the fact that a third “Underworld” is happening!) : Kate Beckinsale will not be in it.

Yep, you read right. The only ‘good’ thing about this franchise is walking – and she’s taking her body-hugging trousers with her!

Beckinsale’s hubby, writer/director Len Wiseman, is writing a penning to the first two films, so Beckinsale’s character, leather-clad avenger Selena, won’t be needed. (And, I'm guessing, either will Scott Speedman's pussy-boy lad).

"I think it's a prequel before I'm actually in it, so I think that won't include me if it happens," the spunkette tells MTV, in an interview to promote her forthcoming comedy, "Click".

Oh, and don't count on seeing her in the mutli-coloured bra and undies set either. Beckinsale adds that she’s not interested in playing “Wonder Woman”, despite rumours to the contrary.

Nothing like two blows in one night, hey?

Hey, Paris?

wow. that sucks.

If they bring in some other hottie in vinyl, I imagine the movie will be just as good as before. "Good" being relative, of course.

Get it? Cuz it's a movie about vampires. :D

If the third one is made, and Beckinsale's not on board, dollar to a doughnut says that it's a direct-to-video release.

NOOOooo-OOOOooo.

HN 05-21-06 02:08 AM

ok. so yeah, it's bad that beckinsale's not in it. but what if some other ridiculously hot actress gets the role. it'd be alright then, right? i mean, who watches Underworld for the vampires/werewolves?

DonnachaOne 05-21-06 03:20 AM

Ah, a prequel. Everyone loves prequels, right?

Yeah, that saved the Species franchise, it did.

No Kate no me.

toddly6666 05-21-06 07:29 AM

Why would it suck? Underworld 2 was the worst piece of crap.

FiveO 05-21-06 08:13 AM

I didn't mind U2 that much. One of the saving graces was Beckinsale though.


PS: Is there any movies you do like?

toddly6666 05-21-06 10:23 AM

I really liked Underworld 1

candyrocket786 05-21-06 01:07 PM

If it's a prequel with Zita Görög :drool:, Bill Nighy and Tony Curran...


I am sooo there !!!!

eXcentris 05-21-06 02:08 PM

Since I don't believe Beckinsale qualifies as hot, I don't care. Oh, and add Keira Knightley to that list.

jaeufraser 05-21-06 02:16 PM

Maybe she got in a fight with Len. After all, he is her husband.

I wonder if that's a smart move. Probably won't matter as long as they can shoehorn some hottie in leather into the movie somewhere.

iggystar 05-21-06 07:18 PM

More Tony Curran!!!!!! As mentioned in the other thread...I'm so down with that redhead. Kate who?

GIjon213 05-21-06 08:06 PM

So is this a DTV release, or theatrical release?

maingon 05-21-06 08:23 PM

its a bummer but still I love these movies and glad we get a third one

Dash 05-22-06 12:08 AM

Well if its a prequel and it has a good story then I dont really care. I really liked her in the movies, but I would be interested to see vampires with swords insted of guns!

Interesting. Who qualifies as hot to you? Ricki Lake?

immortal_zeus 05-22-06 02:25 PM

Bummer. :( I was gonna say that opens the door for Lacey Chabert to play a young Selene, but vampires take forever to age...and Chabert is more well endowed than Beckinsale. :p
