Peta Gia Wilson (born November 18, 1970) is an Australian born actress and model. First working as a model in Australia and Europe, she moved to Los Angeles where she studied acting. In 1996, she starred in the Canadian television action series Nikita (U.S. title: La Femme Nikita) playing the role of Nikita. In 2003, Wilson appeared in the movie The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen in the role of vampiress Mina Harker.
She discovered at a young age a love of performing, in part to help her dealing with changing schools and being the odd one out growing up. Before becoming an actress, Wilson worked as a model. However, performing is her first love. She moved to Los Angeles to study acting with Arthur Mendoza, a protege of Stella Adler. Wilson's credits include a bit part on Highlander: The Series, the films Loser, The Sadness of Sex, A Woman Undone, One of Our Own, and the forthcoming Mercy, co-starring Ellen Barkin, Julian Sands, and Wendy Crewson, directed by her longtime boyfriend Damian Harris. She also has a production company, Sweet Lip Productions, and is developing several projects, including Guns In The Night.
