COSPLAY TRIBUTE
UNDERWORLD
With the new Underworld Blood
Wars film about to hit we got together with a local cosplayer and
fan of the series to have some fun
creating some photos inspired by
the movie. Megan (Yaniv Cosplay)
and I sat and talked about the new
movie and I first asked what she
loved about the Underworld films.
“I love that they are so in depth,
there’s a lot of underlaying history,
characters and events that are
happening during the movies and
before the movies which makes
them feel more in depth and detailed, making them feel more realistic to me.”
What about the sets used and the
mood they create? Do you think
they capture the whole feeling and
drama of the story?
Definitely, I think the darkness mixed
in with the rain and gothic costumes
make the story feel so much more
intense and add this edge of drama
which I love! It draws me into the
movies more and makes me feel as
though I want to be a part of it.
Kate Beckinsale is perfect as Selene - What did you think of “Rise of
the Lycans” and Rhona Mitra in the
key role as Sonja?
Kate Beckinsale is my ultimate female crush and is perfect for the
role of Selene! I don’t think anyone
else would’ve been better suited
for the job.
Out of all the movies, Rise of Lycans is my favorite. I like how the
producers of the film really wanted
to tell the story of how the war between the lycans and vampires
(death dealers) started.
I think that Rhona was the perfect
for the role of Sonja. She is a fantastic actress and really made me
feel like her love for Lucian was real
and that she would do anything just
so that she could be with him. I also
think that her sharp features made
her look intense and perfect for the
role as a vampire.
Which movie is your favourite?
The first film is my favourite, but
they are all fantastic!
