'Underworld 4' Gets 'New Dawn' Title, Plot Details Revealed

The next "Underworld" movie will see the light of the day soon and it has gotten a title which reflects that. According to Bloody Disgusting, the fourth installment of the action fantasy franchise is tentatively called "Underworld 4: New Dawn".

Beside learning the movie title, the site also claims to have found out the plot. It says, "After being held in a coma-like state for fifteen years, vampire Selene (Kate Beckinsale) learns that she has a fourteen-year-old vampire/Lycan hybrid daughter, Nissa, and when she finds her they must stop BioCom from creating super Lycans that will kill them all."

As reported before, Beckinsale will indeed return to the upcoming movie after skipping "Underworld: Rise of the Lycans". However, it was said her appearance will be short because she will "pass the torch" to her daughter. It has not been announced who will portray Selene's daughter.

Meanwhile, Swedish directing team Mans Marlind and Bjorn Stein have been tapped to work behind the lens of "Underworld 4", which is currently slated for January 20, 2012 release in the U.S. Production was last reported to start in March 2011 in Vancouver.
