Milla Jovovich is a Ukranian film actress, producer and fashion designer. She was born Milica Bogdanovna Jovovich in Kiev in the Ukraine on December 17th, 1975. She has appeared in numerous science fiction and action-themed films, earning her the sobriquet "reigning queen of kick-butt" from the music channel VH1 in 2006.
Jovovich gained attention for her role in the explicit 1991 romance film Return to the Blue Lagoon, as she was then only 15. She was considered to have a breakthrough with her role alongside Bruce Willis and Gary Oldman in the 1997 French science-fiction film The Fifth Element, written and directed by Luc Besson. She and Besson married that year but soon divorced. She starred as the heroine and martyr in Besson's The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc in 1999.
In 2002, Jovovich starred in the science fiction horror film Resident Evil, adapted from the video game of the same name. It was disliked by critics, but was commercially successful. She reprised her role in five sequels, all in the apocalyptic fiction action horror genre, made between 2004 and 2016. [1]
