November 26: Kate Beckinsale, Today's HD Hottie

Washington, D.C. (November 26, 2009) -- Following our extremely popular contest, 'HD Hottie Hysteria,' we've started a new feature in which we will highlight a top female star every day. The gorgeous female will come from a program that can be seen in gorgeous high-def that very day.

Today's 'HD Hottie' is Kate Beckinsale, who stars today in high-def in Pearl Harbor at 2:20 p.m. ET on Starz.

The 36-year-old actress, who was born in London, England, got her first big break in Emma, a 1996 TV movie based on Jane Austen's book. But she quickly soared to indie fame in such films as The Last Days of Disco and Cold Comfort Farm.

Beckinsale hit the big time in the States in this decade with starring turns in Pearl Harbor and the Underworld series, in which she played a leather-clad, werewolf-hunting vampire.

Her film, Nothing But the Truth, was based on the life of former New York Times reporter, Judith Miller, who was imprisoned in Virginia for refusing to reveal a source's identity. And Kate recently starred in Whiteout and will soon appear in Everyone's Fine with Robert De Niro.

So, here is Kate Beckinsale, Today's HD Hottie:
