Mila Kunis’ first role as an actress came from the popular TV series, That 70s Show where she played the princess Jackie. Per Looper, Kunis, who was only 14 years old at the time of casting, lied about being 18 in order to win the part. Her role not only kick-started her successful career in Hollywood, but also introduced her to her husband, Ashton Kutcher. Only one year after landing her role in That 70s Show, Kunis jumped into another long-standing TV series, Family Guy, where she still plays Meg Griffin. The series, which has been around since 1999, is certainly a series that fans would love to see turned into a movie.

Despite most of her career taking place around both of those TV series, Kunis has many feature-length films that further showcase her wide range of talent. Her best movies are the comedic-based genres, such as her role in the 2008 comedy, Forgetting Sarah Marshall. On the other end of film genres is her appearance in the thriller, Black Swan, where Kunis won a Saturn Award for Best Supporting Actress alongside her co-star, Oscar-winner Natalie Portman.

Kunis’ next film is based on the best-selling novel by Jessica Knoll, Luckiest Girl Alive. USA Today reports that the Netflix film will drop sometime in 2022 and will star Connie Britton, Finn Wittrock, and Jennifer Beals. Until then, let’s take a look back at some of Mila Kunis’ best movies, ranked.
