true
Spoilers:
this last one constantly references her daughter. at one point someone says that "many wars will be fought over her..." That and the last shot of the film leaves the blatant impression that they're going to reboot the series with a younger Death Dealer female lead.
My guess is that the next Underworld Does just that and Selene's character is going to be completely off screen (like eve is in this one) or will make some kind of guest appearance, since the end of the film also sets up a situation where Selene becomes one of the 3 Vampire Elders who rule all vampires.
Also, Selene gains a new power that would basically make her almost unstoppable against anybody. She is able to teleport herself through space at will. IMO it's stupid and it's choreographed badly in the climax of the film.
There's also some issues with this one that are even worse than previous films. Vampires and Lycans want Selene's blood because it makes them powerful. So powerful that they can beat the shit out of her. So why doesn't it make her powerful enough so that she's able to just beat down these stupid fucks in the first scene. And why is it that she gets the shit kicked out of her by younger, less experienced vampires in scene after scene, then she's so fucking bad ass at the end that she just annihilates the toughest adversary in the film.
