Underworld: Awakening marks the fourth film in the Underworld franchise and returns Kate Beckinsale to her most recognizable role after sitting out the third film, Underworld: Rise of the Lycans. After debuting theatrically in January, Underworld: Awakening will come to Blu-ray 3D, Blu-ray and DVD on May 8.
Underworld: Awakening grossed $62.32 million at the North American box office, well above the $45.8 million put up by Underworld: Rise of the Lycans and right on par with the almost identical to the $62.31 million Underworld: Evolution made back in 2006. Underworld: Awakening is the highest grossing film in the franchise thus far thanks to the return of Beckinsale and the addition of 3D.
