1980s

Milla Jovovich’s film career began in the late 1980s with small parts in a couple of movies. Back then, these weren’t key roles, and the actress was merely credits as ‘Milla’, but this became a starting point to build from.

Her first on-screen appearance was as Samantha Delongpre in Two Moon Junction. This was followed the same year by a part in the television movie, The Night Train to Kathmandu.

Jovovich’s movies during the 1980s included:

Two Moon Junction (1988)
The Night Train to Kathmandu (1988)

1990s

Drifting into the 1990s, and Milla Jovovich’s film career began to gain traction, kicking off with a starring role in Return to the Blue Lagoon. This was then followed by parts in Kuffs and Chaplin, as well as Dazed and Confused.

At this point, Jovovich was getting parts in big movies, but she wasn’t well-known amongst general audiences. However, all that began to change, thanks to a scene-stealing role in the sci-fi action movie, The Fifth Element.

Starring alongside Bruce Willis, Jovovich took on the role of Leeloo for the Luc Besson-directed picture, which instantly put here on everyone’s radar. From here she then appeared in Spike Lee’s He Got Game, before taking a lead role in another Luc Besson movie: Joan of Arc.

Milla Jovovich’s movies in the 1990s included:

Return to the Blue Lagoon (1991)
Kuffs (1992)
Chaplin (1992)
Dazed and Confused (1993)
The Fifth Element (1997)
He Got Game (1998)

2000s

Moving into the 2000s now, and at the beginning of the new millennium Jovovich appeared in The Million Dollar Hotel, as well as The Claim. The following year she popped up in the comedy, Zoolander, before featuring in four films in 2002: The Dummy, Resident Evil, No Good Deed, and You Stupid Man.

Out of all those films, it was Resident Evil which truly struck a chord with audiences. The sci-fi horror movie – based on a video game of the same name – proved to be a box-office hit, and helped Jovovich to gain a new legion of fans.

And because Resident Evil was such a success it was soon followed by a collection of sequels, including Resident Evil: Apocalypse in 2004, and Resident Evil: Extinction in 2007.

Jovovich’s films in the 2000s included:

The Million Dollar Hotel (2000)
The Claim (2000)
Zoolander (2001)
The Dummy (2002)

And finally, into the 2020s now and Jovovich kick-started the decade with the action-adventure picture, Monster Hunter. Released during the pandemic, the movie was based on a video game, but it didn’t reach the same success as the Resident Evil films.

Following on from Monster Hunter (as well as the global pandemic), Jovovich’s post-pandemic releases include Breathe and In the Lost Lands.

Jovovich’s movies in the 2020s include:

Monster Hunter (2020)
