From Hawaii with love, Maggie Q takes aim

Gentlemen, when trying to impress a date- NEVER ask her to split the bill.. especially if its pistol packing protagonist, Maggie Q.

She plays the lead character in the upcoming action series NIKITA set to premiere this fall on the CW Network. From the familiar title you might be conjuring up another infamous girl on the run with a gun..

Indeed, a definite nod to the 1990 French action blockbuster written and directed by Luc Besson. Who could forget the scene with Victor the Cleaner and his suitcase full of acid? Right about now you maybe recalling your fondness for the film, but wait an MP5 minute- hadn't a Nikita television series previously been done?

Yes. From 1997 to 2001 it starred the falsely accused femme fatale Peta Wilson and aired on the USA cable television network. So will there be a connection between her story line and that of Maggie Q?

Perhaps. But for now we're already blown to bits by Ms. Q's impressive resume such as starring opposite Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible III.

And umm, looks that kill don't hurt the eyes.

RIP readers and be reborn September 9^th when the pilot airs.
