Earlier this month, we told you that the Swedish directing team of Måns Mårlind and Björn Stein (Shelter) were in negotiations to direct the upcoming addition to the Underworld franchise, which will be produced by Len Wiseman (The World After), who directed the first two Underworld films, and it will star Kate Beckinsale (The Trials of Cate McCullough) who will officially reprise her role as Selene.

Now, thanks to Bloody-Disgusting we have found out that the film has been tentatively titled, Underworld 4: New Dawn and they also bring us a synopsis for the film. Check it out below!

“After being held in a coma-like state for fifteen years, vampire Selene (Kate Beckinsale) learns that she has a fourteen-year-old vampire/Lycan hybrid daughter, Nissa, and when she finds her they must stop BioCom from creating super Lycans that will kill them all.”

Underworld 4: New Dawn is slated to hit theaters on January 20th, 2012.
