Underworld: Blood Wars

The 2016 American horror film directed by Anna Foerster is the fifth installment in the "Underworld" series. The plot continues the story of the vampire warrior Selene (Kate Beckinsale), who is forced to hide from both sides of the conflict—vampires and Lycans. The Lycans, led by Marius (Tobias Menzies), intensify their attacks, seeking to find Selene's daughter, Eve, whose blood could give them an advantage in the war. The vampires, in turn, want to punish Selene for her betrayal. Thomas (Charles Dance) and his son David (Theo James) persuade the Vampire Council to grant Selene asylum and ask her to train new recruits. However, within the vampire coven, a conspiracy brews: Semira (Lara Pulver) seeks to seize power and uses Selene in her intrigues. After betrayal and an attack on the coven, Selene and David travel to the northern vampire coven, where they discover new powers and secrets of their origins. The final battle unfolds between vampires and Lycans, where Selene confronts Marius, revealing his true nature. The film is filled with dynamic combat scenes, explores complex political intrigues within vampire society, and showcases the evolution of Selene's character, her struggle for survival, and her quest for peace for her people.
