Over the years, the versatile actress and producer has remained an enigma. Yeah, we know that she married Ashton Kutcher and they have kids—but that’s about where our intel ends. And we want details! So Cosmo asked SNL’s Kate McKinnon, her friend and costar in this month’s big-screen comedy The Spy Who Dumped Me, to chat her up and deliver the goods. Let the revelations begin.
MILA KUNIS HAS A REPUTATION FOR BEING IMPOSSIBLE TO RESIST.
Just ask...well, pretty much anyone who has worked with her, from her Black Swan co-lead Natalie Portman (they bonded watching Top Chef in sweatpants) to her After Sex castmate Zoe Saldana (Mila was front and center when Zoe’s Hollywood Walk of Fame star was unveiled) to her Bad Moms bud Kristen Bell (the supertight pair got matching “friendship haircuts” last year). Even her marriage to longtime That ’70s Show costar Ashton Kutcher, the stuff of fangirl dreams, was born out of a years-long—you guessed it!—friendship.
Mila can’t kick her habit of turning colleagues into ride-or-dies. Listen in as the 34-year-old dishes to her latest, Kate McKinnon, about secret fantasies and career superpowers.
KM: You’re very close with your family. How did they influence who you are today?
MK: My parents allowed me to be very independent and a free thinker, whether they agreed with my choices or not. I never had a curfew, and I never broke many rules. I was in bed by 9. I think my parents were like, Well, she’s not an idiot.…
KM: To me, you are like one of the most normal people in the world. You told me at one point about how you’d hang out at a drugstore after shooting That ’70s Show. Do you think that’s why?

One summer 2009 night, Julia's manager pulled her aside. A silver-haired gentleman's date was being kind of loud and messy-Julia should intervene, be extra nice to him. She got the okay to take the man up to the roof for a quiet smoke. This guy must be a big deal, she thought.
