After being absent from the storyline of the third, pre-quel installment of the Underworld series, Selene is back… and she’s pissed off!
Underworld: Awakening starts off in the same fashion as Resident Evil: Apocalypse. Much like Alice’s awakening as a test subject in an unfamiliar Raccoon City laboratory, Selene (Kate Beckinsale) finds herself being freed from her frozen state and thrown into world she no longer recognizes – one where humans have declared martial law and purged the cities of nearly all vampires and Lycans alike over the last twelve years. Confused and on the run from just about anything that breaths, she is befriended by fellow vampire David (Theo James) who does his part to help protect the one that freed her from the laboratory… a young girl named Eve (India Eisly) – who is more than what she seems to be.
