Milla Jovovich has starred in no less than six “Resident Evil” films since 2002, while Kate Beckinsale may also take offense, having starred in the “Underworld” films since 2003; she played her “Underworld” role five times.

Not to be forgotten of course is Uma Thurman, who starred in “Kill Bill,” Vol. 1 and 2, in 2003 and 2004, and Angelina Jolie, who played Lara Croft twice in “Tomb Raider” movies starting in 2001.
