February 12, 2004 — Milla Jovovich talks to MTV News about her work on "Resident Evil: Apocalypse".

"At the end of the first movie my character survives by the skin of her teeth and she enters this city, and it's completely destroyed, and we don't really know what's going on," a parka-covered Jovovich explained on the set between takes. "At the beginning of this one we pick that up and we see the back history of how the city became deserted, and we meet all of the characters."

Among those characters is Jill Valentine, the beloved heroine of the game who was absent from the first flick and its story about the "T-Virus" that turns a team of scientists into mindless undead killers. "Jill Valentine being in the movie is so cool and she looks amazing," Jovovich gushed.

"I've been told a lot about Jill and when I tell other people I'm playing her, they're like, 'You must be scared,' and 'That's such a big responsibility,' " Sienna Guillory laughed. "She's awesome, she kicks ass and people love her."

Along with adding Valentine, "Apocalypse" further explores the possibilities of the "Resident Evil" premise, something Jovovich was particularly excited about when she read the script. "There are so many great ideas about the whole concept of the T-Virus and what it is, like, it could be a facial cream that improves your look and it could also make you undead. So what does this mean to the world? What does this mean to humanity? Could the T-Virus be used for something good?

"We [also] have girls in short skirts, lots of blood and lots of guns," she playfully added about the flick.

The movie, set for release October 1, will pit the two heroines against the zombies, their corporate creators and a giant monster called Nemesis.
