She may be nearing her 40th birthday but Kate Beckinsale clearly had no qualms about stripping down for a scene for the new Underworld film.

A new trailer shows the lying down naked in a futuristic setting in Underworld: Awakenings.

The actress reprises her role as vampire Selene in the fourth instalment of the sci-fi franchise.

Stripped down: Kate Beckinsale is seen lying naked in a futuristic human facility in the new trailer for the fourth Underworld film, Awakening

The fourth film is produced by her husband Len Wiseman, who directed the first two Underworld films.

It begins with Selene breaking free after being held in a coma-like state for 12 years.

Selene escapes imprisonment to find herself in a world where humans have discovered the existence of vampires and Lycans (half werewolf, half human) are are conducting a war against both species in order to eradicate them.

Hell for leather: Kate sports her trademark catsuit after breaking free from captivity

Much of the trailer shows Kate in her trademark leather catsuit and bright blue contact lenses in full on action mode as she embarks on the 'new war'.
She engages in hand to hand combat against her attackers, performs a few supernatural acrobatic stunts, flees from explosions and faces up against a rather ferocious looking monster.
The film sees a return for Kate after five years away from the franchise - she did not feature in the third Underworld film, a prequel to the first two movies.

Striking: Kate's hair is short and she wears bright blue contact lenses for the movie, which is produced by her husband Len Wiseman

Spectacular: Kate is seen walking through wasteland by a waterfall, fighting off attackers and facing monsters in the trailer

Waging a war: The new movie features Selene fighting back against her human attackers

And the actress recently revealed she was unsure about taking part in a fourth instalment.

'Initially, it was conceived as a trilogy, and the third one was always going to be a prequel where I wasn’t born,' she recently told Collider.com.
'Like everybody, I and Len [Wiseman] and most people who are sensible, have a slight allergy to the number four coming after a movie title because it usually means it’s s***.

Svelte: The star showed off her enviable figure in her character's trademark leather catsuit

'But lately, there have been some movies that have actually taken it somewhere else. I guess we’re in a very different climate now.'

But the star isn't sure she can fit into that clinging catsuit for another movie.

'I don’t know how long it’s seemly to rush about in that outfit,' she told the website. 'They’d have to do it quite quickly. Otherwise, it would be sad.'

Playing with fire: The actress gets involved in some action including fights, supernatural acrobatics and facing off against a fearsome beast
