posted by: Serg source: iF Magazine

Len Wiseman, producer/director/creator of the "Underworld" film series recently scored a lot of attention when it was announced he would be directing the next "Die Hard" film.

iF Magazine caught up with Wiseman while he was promoting the "Underworld: Evolution" DVD out this week and got the skinny on the next chapter in the "Underworld" film series:

"The third film is going to be a prequel. It will be the origin story and we find out things we didn't know about Lucian; he'll have a much bigger part in it. It will be about the creation [of the races] and what started the war. It will be a period piece...

In terms of the writing, a lot of the writing has been done. We've been developing UNDERWORLD 3 for a while. I won't be directing UNDERWORLD 3; I'm just going to be producing and writing" says Wiseman.

Wiseman added that the film will be set in the time period before Kate Beckinsale's Selene character, but it will overlap into the creation of her as well.
