Scott Speedman Talks 'Underworld' Horror


Scott Speedman, star of the upcoming horror film Underworld, spoke with Sci-Fi Wire about his role where he plays a human caught in a war between vampires and werewolves.

"I'm not playing a werewolf. I'm not playing a vampire," said Speedman. "I'm playing this intern who gets pulled into this underworld. Kate Beckinsale plays a vampire, and the werewolves realize my strain of blood can save their race, so they track me and try to get my blood."

Talking about the content of the vampire-fest, Speedman said. "[There's] a lot of big action," he said. "We had a lot of the stunt guys from the Matrix movies and got to do a lot of the wire training. I had a lot of fighting."

Speedman also said cryptically that he endured makeup to transform into "something at the end of the movie.". Underworld opens September 19 2003.
