Insists she had major roles in all of the Underworld (film series) movies and spin offs, and that no other actress has played the part of Selene (Underworld) even when Selene is voiced but a different actress, has only an archival cameo, or is played as a child by a different actress.
- user:Meters/Frank Mortenson LTA spamming of musician Frank Mortenson (particularly into school articles)
