Cosplay: ‘The Fifth Element’s Leeloo is the Supreme Being
She’s here to save the Universe and eat chicken… and she’s all out of chicken.
Denis Villeneuve’s Dune hit theaters this season, breathing new life into the Sci-Fi genre. The buzz around this film calls back to Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings revival of high fantasy, bringing new audiences to the table. Several classic sci-fi franchises have been born from Herbert’s original Dune concept, including the epic space opera The Fifth Element by Luc Besson. The film has led to some amazing Leeloo Cosplays.

The Fifth Element was a beautiful departure from normal sci-fi tropes, bringing love and wonder and a bit of mysticism into the equation. The film captured the hearts of audiences around the world, and has lived strong as a staple of Cosplay culture for decades.

We have featured cosplays from The Fifth Element before (like ArkaneKani’s Ruby Rhod Cosplay), and some titans of the cosplay world have stepped up to the plate as well. Alyson Tabbitha (remember her transformation into Mystique and Ahsoka Tano?), TorieRobot Cosplay and Pugoffka Cosplay have stepped up to the plate with their Leeloo cosplays this week.
