The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2002)
Peta Wilson, who starred in TV's "La Femme Nikita," has signed as the female lead in "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" opposite Sean Connery.

The Australian-born actress will portray Dracula's former paramour, Mina Harker, in the 20th Century Fox project.

She replaces Italian beauty Monica Bellucci ("Malena"), who'd signed on for the role. Bellucci's current project, the Bruce Willis starrer "Man of War," has overrun its wrap date by a month, and insiders say "League's" July 2 start date would not have allowed Bellucci -- for whom English is a third language -- enough time to prep for the role.

"League" is set to begin shooting July 2 in the Czech Republic, Malta and the U.K. under the helm of Stephen Norrington.

Based on a graphic novel by Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill, "League" revolves around explorer Allan Quatermain (Connery), who's empowered by the queen of England to head a crime-fighting ensemble that includes such literary personages as Dr. Jekyll, Captain Nemo, the Invisible Man and Tom Sawyer.

Joe and Max (2001)
Filmed entirely on location in Germany, JOE AND MAX takes us back to the late 1930's and tells of the real life story of heavyweight boxing champions "The Brown Bomber" Joe Louis (Leonard Roberts) and German Max Schmeling (Til Schweiger).

JOE AND MAX explores the ironic difference between the truth of historical events and the way those events and their participants were presented to the public. The world needed to see Louis and Schmeling as enemies, however, they came to see themselves as friends.

Peta Wilson portrays actress Anny Ondra, Max Schmelings' wife. The film tells of the storybook romance that blossomed for the two superstars during the heady days of Berlin's "Golden Twenties" and a devotion that sustained them through the despair of WWII and postwar Germany.

Terminator 3? (2001)
Peta Wilson may be the star of the upcoming blockbuster Terminator 3. This would mark Peta's first appearance in a big budget film. Here are more details.....

"For the past few weeks, there have been several rumors as to who will play the female villain in "T3", set to begin shooting this spring. There have been lots of rumors to suggest names like Chyna, Famke Janssen, and even Natasha Henstridge. But if this report is correct, Arnold Schwarzenegger himself has said that Peta Wilson (TV's "La Femme Nikita") might be the front-runner.

A scooper sends in an e-mail claiming that on a radio talk show, Arnold Schwarzengger stated: "We are looking for an actress who could play the same kind of villain that Robert [Patrick (T-1000 in 'T2'] and I played. Peta Wilson of Nikita is a strong candidate but we haven't chosen anyone yet."

Of course, there is still plenty of time so it is most likely that a female lead stil has not been cast yet. Just another interesting name to add to the list."

NBC Pilot (2001)

Sadness of Sex (1999)
The Sadness of Sex, starring Peta Wilson, is a poignant comedy about love; the cycle of passion, romance, laughter, and seemingly inevitable, heart wrenching break-up.
