Peta Wilson is an Australian actress and former model who achieved international lead status as the star of the action-espionage series La Femme Nikita (1997–2001). Born into a military family in Sydney, she spent much of her childhood in Papua New Guinea before returning to Australia and later moving to Los Angeles to study at the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute. Her portrayal of Nikita earned her several nominations, including Gemini and Saturn Awards, and established her as a prominent figure in genre television. Following the series, she transitioned into supporting roles in major Hollywood features, such as the vampire Mina Harker in The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003) and NASA representative Bobbie-Faye in Superman Returns (2006). Her career is characterized by a mix of high-profile international productions and independent Australian projects.
The story follows a team of pirate mercenaries known as the Lagoon Company, that smuggles goods in and around the seas of Southeast Asia in the early to mid 1990s.[4] Their base of operations is located in the fictional harbor city of Roanapur in east Thailand near the border of Cambodia (somewhere in the Amphoe Mueang Trat district, likely on the mainland north/northeast of the Ko Chang island or on the island itself).[5] The city is home to the Japanese Yakuza, the Chinese Triad, the Russian mafia, the Colombian cartel, the Italian mafia, a wide assortment of pickpockets, thugs, mercenaries, thieves, prostitutes, assassins, and gunmen. The city also has a large Vietnamese refugee population following the Vietnamese refugees exodus after the Communist takeover of Vietnam in 1975. Lagoon Company transports goods for various clients in the American made 80-foot (24 m) Elco-type PT boat Black Lagoon. It has a particularly friendly relationship with the Russian crime syndicate Hotel Moscow. The team takes on a variety of missions—which may involve violent firefights, hand-to-hand combat, and nautical battles—in various Southeast Asian locations, even going as far as Phu Quoc island of Vietnam. When they are not working, the members of the Lagoon Company spend much of their down time at The Yellow Flag, a bar in Roanapur which is often destroyed in firefights.
