Mila Kunis wasn't keen on Friends with Benefits

Mila Kunis

(BANG) -

Mila Kunis thought 'Friends with Benefits' was "dated" when she first saw the script.

The 28-year-old stars alongside Justin Timberlake in the Will Gluck-directed comedy about two friends who decide to try having sex without any strings attached, and she admits it needed extensive work to get it up to scratch.

She said: "When I got the script it was very dated but I knew it made for a funny movie so I took a meeting with Will Gluck. Will, Justin and myself went out to dinner and that's when we realised we wanted the same thing for the movie.

"We were able to workshop it, re-write the script and tailor the characters to what we feel our generation is like now."

Ukrainian-born Mila particularly enjoyed working on the set of the movie because there was a collaborative atmosphere.

She told Stylist magazine: "A lot of the time you go to work then you have lunch by yourself and then you go back to work.

"There are those few movies where you actually sit down with your co-star and your director and have lunch together. Three months in, we still enjoy having dinner together and we still go out to dinner in Los Angeles now."
