Lara Pulver (“Sherlock,” Edge of Tomorrow, “Da Vinci’s Demons”) has joined the cast of the upcoming, still-untitled fifth installment in the Underworld series, says Deadline.
Also starring Kate Beckinsale, Bradley James, and Tobias Menzies, plot and story details for the fifth Underworld are being kept under wraps.
The Underworld sequel, which is the fifth film in the franchise, will also star franchise vamp Theo James, and potentially focus on Selene (Beckinsale) and Michael Corvin’s (Scott Speedman) hybrid daughter, Eve.
Directing the movie is Anna Foerster, who did 2nd unit work as well as acting a director of photography as Roland Emmerich’s right hand woman on movies such as The Day After Tomorrow and White House Down.
Lakeshore Entertainment’s Tom Rosenberg, Gary Lucchesi, and Richard S. Wright are producing, as is David Kern along with Len Wiseman. Production is set to begin later this year in Prague.
Screen Gems has slated it for release on October 21, 2016.
