Mila Kunis was born Milena Markovna Kunis
on August 14, 1983 in Kiev, Ukraine, the birthplace of another
familiar actress, Milla Jovovich.
Her father, Mark, was a mechanical engineer, and her mother,
Elvira, a physics teacher.
At the time of Mila's birth, Ukraine still
formed part of the Soviet Union, and political turmoil surrounded
Mila throughout her childhood years. In 1990, Ukraine gained
its sovereignty, and the Kunis parents moved to Los Angeles,
seeking a more stable environment in which to raise their
children.
Relocation to the West brought with it abrupt
changes, and the Kunis family was forced to shed their former
professions (to this day Mark continues to work as the president
of a cab company and Elvira as a drugstore manager). Mila
and her brother were immediately enrolled in a local public
school, where they began to learn English through immersion.
Mila honed her conversational skills further through watching
television; the game show "The Price is Right" proved
particularly helpful to Mila, as host Bob Barker spoke slowly
enough for her to consistently pick up on what he was saying.
Mila's break as an actress came in 1998, when
she was cast as the young Gia in the HBO film of the same
name (Angelina Jolie played
the adult version of the character). The broadcast was well
received, and Mila made the jump from bit actor to a familiar
face in the entertainment industry. That same year, she auditioned
for a part on a new Fox series, Teenage Wasteland.
Although she was only 14 at the time (she told the producers
she was 18), Mila won the part of the character Jackie, on
the show that would be renamed That '70s Show.
That '70s Show went on to great success. In
spite of the recognition her work had brought her, Mila continued
to attend part-time classes at her local school, Fairfax Senior
High School, sitting alongside students from the nearby Inglewood
and South Central L.A. neighborhoods. She graduated from Fairfax
in 2001, the same year that she appeared alongside Kirsten
Dunst and Sisqo in the teenie hit movie Get Over It
and in the video for Aerosmith's single "Jaded."
