Milla Jovovich collects weapons. The model-and-actress - who has a 21-month-old daughter Ever Gabo with her partner, director Paul W.S. Anderson - says she was never interested in traditional childhood toys and has carried her passion for martial arts and combat into her adult life.

You can really get into the meat of an animal, slice cucumbers and kill zombies - all in one day."
