The fourth Mission: Impossible flick DOMINATED the box office when it came out…and now the fourth Underworld movie is doing the same!
Over the weekend, Underworld: Awakening landed the #1 spot at the box office with $25.4 million! Wowsa!
Here's what Sony's president of worldwide distribution Rory Bruer had to say about the win, which he largely attributes to Kate Beckinsale's return to the franchise:
Kate Beckinsale has brushed off her catsuit and fangs for another exciting adventure as Selene!
Underworld: Awakening is the fourth installment of the Underworld series and adds humans to the mix in the battle of lychans against vamps.
In a recent interview about the upcoming flick, Kate commented on how this lastest movie might not be her last. There could actually be a fifth Underworld on the way, as she explains:
As we said back in November when the new trailer was released, we're kind of skeptical about this one…but at least Kate's looking great!

We'd REALLY feel a lot better about this one if Scott Speedman were back. Just sayin'!
What do U think? Are U feeling this new Underworld flick???

Kate Beckinsale is back in her fang-tastic, dominatrix gear - and this time, audiences will get to enjoy her in the third dimension!
Check out the actress as she returns to her role as the vampire Selene in the new trailer for the upcoming fourth addition to the Underworld franchise, called Underworld: Awakening (above)!
We love the aesthetic these flicks use, but seriously - ANOTHER plot about vampire offspring?!
Didn't Breaking Dawn teach ANYONE what a terrible idea that is?!
Not to mention no more Scott Speedman hunkiness?! Lame!
What do U think?? Will U be tuning in for this one?
She certainly isn't the first actor to get nekkid for a paycheck! Ha!
Check out the first trailer (above) for Underworld: Awakening, which once again stars Kate Beckinsale who needed a few extra bucks.
Looks like it'll be a steamy, bloody, vampirrific good time…but we'd still prefer to see an original movie. This Hollywood obsession with sequels and fourquels and fivequels is getting out of hand!
What do U think? Are U excited for another Underworld flick???
She should totally take this role! Mutants instead of vampires would be a good change of pace for her…
Earlier this month, we weren't overly enthused to hear that Kate Beckinsale had started production on a fourth Underworld film, although we were glad to hear that she was working!
Now, Kate's been given a chance to expand her horizons! She's been offered a female lead role opposite Colin Farrell in Sony Pictures' Total Recall remake.
If she signs on to the project, she'll be starring in the role of Lori, who was previously played by Sharon Stone in the original version.
Given the fact that the film's director Len Wiseman previously directed Kate in two Underworld movies AND since he's her husband, we're thinking she'll probs attach herself to this project sooner than later.
Would U like to see Kate Beckinsale in the Total Recall remake?
At least, we think it is! Almost positive, actually!
Angelina Jolie was at the Berlin International Film Festival today, where she is screening her directorial debut, In The Land Of Blood and Honey out of competition, when she announced that the long-rumored project was next up for her - even though she didn't specifically call it by name!
