"The Shield" writer John Hlavin has been hired to pen Underworld 4 for Screen Gems and Lakeshore.

Len Wiseman, who directed the first two films in the vampire-vs.-werewolf saga, is producing with Gary Lucchesi, Tom Rosenberg and Richard Wright of Lakeshore.

The fourth installment does not yet have a director attached and neither Kate Beckinsale or Rhona Mitra have signed to return.

Hlavin said the plot is under wraps, "but I can tell you it's not a prequel." He added, "It will satisfy old fans and excite new audiences, meaning that we don't want to redo the first three movies, so steps are being taken to honor what fans have loved but at the same time introduce fresh elements."

Vampire's will Travel to Jurassic park, Only to find out that they need to feed on Dino DNA to survive.... Then Werewolves will come onto the island to battle then.. The King kong will come from skull island... Godzilla will rise from the Sea,

An it will be called Underworld vs The World.

LOL... Now that's be funny. Seriously... if not a prequel where the hell are they gonna go with this Franchise?

The only way I'll see this movie is if they get Rhona Mitra and Kate Beckinsale to have a totally unecessary bare naked rubbed in oil wrestle.
