The trailer for Underworld 6: Rise of the Vampire opens with an ominous, moonlit sky over a ruined castle in Eastern Europe. Selene (Kate Beckinsale), the legendary vampire death dealer, stands atop the battlements, her eyes glowing ice-blue as she surveys the desolate landscape below. Her voiceover sets the tone: “I thought the war was over, that peace was within reach. But darkness has a way of rising again.”
We quickly learn that the tenuous peace between vampires and lycans is on the verge of collapse. The vampire council, weakened and scattered, struggles to maintain control over their bloodlines. Meanwhile, a new threat emerges—Marcus’s progeny, a powerful ancient vampire named Lucianus (played by a new actor), who has returned from centuries of slumber. Lucianus believes that the vampire race has lost its way, and he aims to restore their dominance by resurrecting an ancient, long-forgotten vampire army.
The trailer shifts between Selene battling rogue lycans in intense action sequences and her confrontation with Lucianus. Selene, now armed with even greater powers after her previous evolution, faces her deadliest opponent yet. Lucianus is not just a skilled warrior but also a master of dark magic, capable of manipulating shadows and controlling the minds of lesser vampires. His goal is to purge the modern world of what he considers to be “weak” vampires, restoring the brutal, ancient order of the species.
Throughout the trailer, Selene is joined by returning allies, including David (Theo James) and Lena (Clementine Nicholson), as they race against time to stop Lucianus from gaining control of a legendary artifact: the Bloodstone. This powerful relic holds the key to making Lucianus and his army invincible.
The teaser builds to a climactic battle between Selene and Lucianus, set in an underground crypt filled with ancient tombs. The fighting is brutal, with Selene pushing her newfound powers to their limits. As they clash, Lucianus reveals a shocking twist—Selene is more connected to the ancient vampire bloodline than she ever realized.
The final shot of the trailer shows Selene standing in the aftermath of battle, surrounded by the ruins of the crypt, as she whispers: “The rise has begun… and there’s no turning back.”
The screen cuts to the title card: Underworld 6: Rise of the Vampire – Coming 2025.
