Kate Beckinsale, star of the original
Underworld, has confirmed that she will be reprising her role as the vampire Selene in
Underworld 2.
"It's under lock and key at the moment, but I know that they're definitely talking about it," Beckinsale told
Sci-Fi Wire. "There's lots of furtive reading of scripts in the bathroom. So I think they're writing it, but I think they don't want to get me involved in case I freak out about something."
Len Wiseman, director of the original movie, and co-star, Scott Speedman, are both thought to have signed on for the sequel.
