Working happily as a supermodel for hair products and other fashionable companies, she accidentally broke into films as the titular fantasy object of affection in Gene Wilder's The Woman in Red. Her image, draped in a breezy red dress, served as an icon for the film. LeBrock re-created the fantasy object role for the teenage crowd in John Hughes' Weird Science. This time, she was literally created by high school dorks Garry (Anthony Michael Hall) and Wyatt (Ilan Mitchell-Smith). During the '90s, married her bodyguard, martial artist Steven Seagal. They had three children and appeared in one film together (Hard to Kill) before their divorce in 1996. LeBrock worked intermittently in thrillers (Tracks of a Killer, Betrayal of the Dove) and softcore porn (Hard Bounty). Eventually, she went down the same path as other marginally talented former beauties -- as a romantic interest of Leslie Nielsen in satirical comedy features. Her fate finally came about in the Fugitive-parody Wrongfully Accused in 1998. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, Rovi
