Milla Jovovich investigates Alaskan disappearances

Milla Jovovich
in 'The Fifth Element'Reuters reports Milla Jovovich will star in “The 4th Kind,” a thriller about an Alaskan town that “has seen an extraordinary number of unexplained disappearances during the past 40 years (with) accusations of a federal cover-up.”

Further details are not yet public, but Reuters claims the thriller deals with an “ongoing unsolved mystery” and is "fact-based."

Jovovich — or as I like to call her, Jovovovovovovovovich, — is no stranger to otherworldly material, having starred in the “Resident Evil” series, “Ultraviolet,” and one of my all-time favorites, “The Fifth Element.”

Alaska — or as I like to call it, Alalalalalalalalalaska — is home to the so-called Alaska Triangle, an area spanning from Ketchikan to Fairbanks to Anchorage, in which numerous planes and people have vanished.

I'd wager that extremely harsh weather and acres upon acres of treacherous, remote wilderness might have something to do with it. Or it could be aliens.
