You get two for the price of one here, as Milla Jovovich has previously worked with both husbands Luc Besson and Paul WS Anderson on several movies.

First she met Besson while working on 1997's The Fifth Element. He was married to co-star Maiwenn Besco at the time. Besson and Jovovich were married shortly after his divorce. Their marriage only lasted 3 years, but he did direct her in The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc.

She then worked for the first time with Anderson on 2002's Resident Evil. She also did the two sequels Afterlife and Extinction without Anderson directing (he did write them) and then they officially got married in 2009, and he directed her in the three Resident Evil movies after that.

They also worked together in 2011's Three Musketeers and will have a new video game movie coming out soon with Monster Hunter.
