"Jupiter Ascending" actress Mila Kunis revealed in an interview that one of the main reasons she took her role in "Bad Moms" was because she was able to relate well with the situation.
Kunis shared some of her experiences off cam and during filming of the said movie. The relatively new mother also recalled an experience where she almost forgot to secure her first child at the back seat of her car.
In the movie, her character Amy Mitchell is a mother of two trying to juggle time for her family and career. The 34-year old actress said she was in a similar situation back when she had her first child, Wyatt, and she had an opportunity to star in the said movie, Hollywood Reporter reported.
Now that she has played her role on the said film, the "Friends with Benefits" actress confessed there are times she felt like a "bad mom" in real life. She shared a previous experience where she had planned to visit Ashton and she had everything packed and done, except for securing Wyatt in her seat. The actress said the experience reminded her how parents can easily make mistakes that could affect their children's well-being.
To cap off the whole story of "Bad Moms," Amy and her friends are bored housewives which put them to adventures they never had before. In the story, Amy and company encountered conflict with Gwendolyn and her flock of "perfect moms," Daily Advance reported.
Sharing her thoughts and experiences with the film, co-star Annie Mumolo was also able to relate to the movie's story saying during her interview that it becomes relevant now that she has two kids and she had to deal with the same everyday issues similar to what her character went through in the movie. Mumolo added, "It was really fun to see something like that and I think especially in an R-rated, unleashed format-it makes it more real."
"Bad Moms" was written and directed by Jon Lucas and Scott Moore which started airing last July 30, 2016. Aside from Kunis and Mumolo, the cast includes Kathryn Hahn, Kristen Bell, Christina Applegate and Jada Pinkett Smith.
