In the wake of five movies, the Kate Beckinsale-led Underworld franchise announced a television series back in 2016, with Underworld director Len Wiseman on board the project.
Is that still happening? In a new chat with Entertainment Weekly, Wiseman provides an update.
“There is a fashion that is in the works. I can’t talk about it, but there is a future to Underworld for sure,” Wiseman tells EW, before being specifically asked about the planned TV series.
Wiseman responds to that question, “That’s the one I’m referring to.”
“The series will be a pretty big departure from the films,” Wiseman said back in 2016. “I don’t want to say it’s more adult, but it’s definitely less comic book in its tone and character.”
The Underworld franchise kicked off in 2003, starring Kate Beckinsale as Selene, an elite vampire-warrior. The franchise centers on an epic war between vampires and lycans.
