Milla Jovovich was born December 17, 1975 in Kiev.

Both her mother and father provided cleaning services for director Brian De Palma to make ends meet. She started modelling aged 11, and went on to become one of the world's most sought after models. Milla made her acting debut in 1988 TV movie Night Train To Kathmandu, and then appeared in her first feature film, Two Moon Junction.

Since 2002, she has played Alice, a zombie-bashing clone in a series which has grossed more than $674million and helped make her one of the most bankable actreses on the planet.

He was in the TV show Remington Steele for five years, which prevented him taking over from Roger Moore as 007 in 1986. Low-budget movies followed until Bond came calling again in 1995. His last 007 movie, Die Another Day, was released in 2002. He runs his own production company, Irish DreamTime. Among his best non-Bond movies are The Thomas Crown Affair remake, The Matador, Seraphim Falls, The Ghost, Love is All You Need, The Love Punch, A Long Way Down and Mamma Mia!
