Introduction

Mila Kunis is an American professional actress with an estimated net worth of $75 Million.

Before Wealth & Fame

Mila Kunis’ family left the USSR when she was only 7. Her parents didn’t see a future for her or her elder brother, Michael, in the country. Mila and her family moved to Los Angeles, California, with only $250 to their name. She attended Hubert Howe Bancroft Middle School in Los Angeles and graduated from Fairfax High School.

Like many of the world’s wealthiest actors, Mila Kunis started her career as a child, appearing in several TV commercials. While at Beverly Hills Studios, Kunis met Susan Curtis, who became her manager and landed her a role in a Barbie commercial. This performance, along with her role in a commercial for Lisa Frank, allowed Kunis to audition for various minor television appearances.

Television Career

From the mid-1990s to the end of the decade, Mila Kunis appeared in various guest roles on popular television shows. In 1994, she made her debut on Days of Our Lives, playing a younger version of Hope Williams. She followed this with roles in David Hasselhoff’s Baywatch and Hudson Street.

While these roles cemented her professional acting credentials, it wasn’t until 1998 that she broke through into a significant role and gained national recognition. After lying about her age at the audition, Kunis was cast as Jackie Burkhart in That ’70s Show, a role she would play for several seasons.

Her impressive performance, combining heartfelt emotional scenes with a sense of comedic timing, earned Kunis praise from television critics. The role also saw her working with Ashton Kutcher, with whom she would later become romantically involved.

Film Career

With the success of That ’70s Show bringing widespread acclaim for Kunis, she was able to branch out and develop her career as a big-screen actor. Throughout the early 2000s, she appeared in many movies, from straight-to-video sequels such as American Psycho 2 to Get Over It.

Despite mixed reviews for these movies, Kunis’s performances were praised, emphasizing her sense of comic timing and charisma. Her dedication to acting eventually paid off at the box office with the 2008 comedy film Forgetting Sarah Marshall, co-starring Russell Brand and Jason Segel. The same year, Kunis branched out and flexed her action role muscles, appearing as a crime boss alongside Mark Wahlberg in Max Payne.

Despite being praised for her efforts to perform outside of her comfort zone, Mila Kunis’s career continued to reflect her knack for comedic roles. Her most successful performances throughout the 2010s were in popular comedies with some of the genre’s most notable figures.

After earning praise from critic Roger Ebert for her performance in the Ben Affleck film Extract, Kunis would star in a string of hit comedies. Notable examples include Bad Moms with Christina Applegate and Kristen Bell and The Spy Who Dumped Me alongside Kate McKinnon.

At the same time, she branched out into more serious roles that reflected her confidence outside of comedy and her ability to deliver dramatic performances. These roles included the crime thriller Blood Ties with Clive Owen and the epic science fiction film alongside Channing Tatum in Jupiter Ascending.

Voice Acting

Her more popular movie roles have often overshadowed Mila Kunis’s career in television, but it also includes many hit shows over the years. Since 1999, she’s voiced Meg Griffin in the hit Seth MacFarlane animated comedy series Family Guy, replacing Lacey Chabert in season two. Her voice-acting abilities were also used to great effect for various characters in Robot Chicken, another animated comedy known for its edgy jokes.

Real Estate

Los Angeles Home

In September 2008, Mila Kunis purchased a 4,884-square-foot, four-bedroom, five-bathroom home in Los Angeles, California, for $2.885 million. The property featured a home theater, music room, and an outdoor swimming pool and fire pit area overlooking Los Angeles. In September 2014, Kunis returned the property to the market, seeking a price just under $4 million. She sold it just days later for $3.825 million.

Los Angeles Farmhouse

In December 2007, Kunis’ now-husband, Ashton Kutcher, paid $8 million for 5.7 acres of land in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles. In 2016, with the couple already married, they filed permits to build a sustainable two-storey farmhouse. The permits also included a guesthouse, pavilion, and swimming pool. The property is complete, but how much Kutcher and Kunis spent building it is unknown.

Highest-Grossing Movies

When a teddy bear came to life, it produced Kunis’ highest-grossing movie of her career. Ted grossed $549 million at the box office against a budget of $50 million. Her biggest year at the box office came in 2010 when she starred in three movies, all of which made it into the top ten: Black Swan ($329 million), The Book of Eli ($157 million), and Date Night ($152 million).

Some notable mentions that didn’t reach the list include Forgetting Sarah Marshall ($106 million), Max Payne ($87 million), and The Spy Who Dumped Me ($75 million).
