Hollywood star Milla Jovovich feels blessed to have amassed a dedicated fan following for delivering high-octane action sequences with her movies. Jovovich, who was born in Kiev, Ukraine before her parents emigrated to the US, started her film journey with movies like Return to the Blue Lagoon, Chaplin and Richard Linklater's Dazed and Confused.

But after a brief hiatus, the actor took a plunge in the action genre with The Fifth Element, co-starring Bruce Willis and Gary Oldman. Jovovich was able to showcase her action credential in the cult classic movie and later followed up with the blockbuster Resident Evil franchise.

Today, the actor is one of the most recognised female action stars and she feels content with the love and recognition that has come her way over the years. "I make fun movies and people love to see me kick b''t. I've also made loads of independent movies. In the end, it's the big action films that have given me the fan base that I have today. I'm super lucky. I've had a lot of praise from fans that love what I do," the actor, 45, said in an interview.

Jovovich said her fascination with action movies started in childhood when she used to watch the movies of Sigourney Weaver from the Alien franchise and Linda Hamilton from the Terminator series. "When I was growing up, it was Sigourney Weaver and Linda Hamilton. They were kick''' and realistic," she added.
