Underworld: Evolution - Lucian

(click pic for larger version)

Lucian, played by Michael Sheen, was the leader of the lycan horde. While the character was featured prominantly in the first movie, he didn't shown up at all in the book for Evolution. He's in the credits so he must be in there somewhere.

The lycans and vampires began their war after Viktor sentenced his own daughter, Sonja, to death for loving Lucian. The next six centuries were spent locked in a bitter genocidal battle. During those many years Lucian was hiding out after he struck a deal with Kraven. Kraven brought the branded flesh from the lycan leader's shoulder to "prove Lucian's demise" and that made him a legend in the coven.

The only way we'll see Lucian in Evolution is in a body bag or a morgue. Oops. I guess you can call that a spoiler.
