She then appeared in British costume dramas such as Prince of Jutland, Cold Comfort Farm, Emma, and The Golden Bowl, in addition to various stage and radio productions. She began to seek film work in the United States in the late 1990s and, after appearing in small-scale dramas The Last Days of Disco and Brokedown Palace, she had a break-out year in 2001 with starring roles in the war film Pearl Harbor and the romantic comedy Serendipity. She built on this success with appearances in the biopic The Aviator and the comedy Click.
Beckinsale appeared in 2003's Underworld and has since starred in Van Helsing, Underworld: Evolution, Whiteout, as well as Contraband, Underworld: Awakening, and Total Recall. She also makes occasional appearances in smaller dramatic projects such as Snow Angels, Winged Creatures, Nothing but the Truth, and Everybody's Fine.
