Kunis said she was contemplating whether she wanted to keep doing the same thing or go out and explore life.
"I realized that acting is the one thing I love to do. I asked myself, 'What else could I do that would make me happy? What else could I do where I wake up in the morning and think, 'I get to work and do something great and have fun'? I couldn't think of anything else. So I was like, 'I'm stuck doing this because I actually, truly love it.'"
What is your favorite Mila Kunis role, and what would you like to see the actress tackle next? Sound off below!Mila Kunis revealed to ShowbizSpy her short-lived aspirations to find another profession. While discussing her role in the new Darren Aronofsky film "Black Swan," the former "That 70's Show" starlet, talks about how she almost left acting when theTV series ended.
"I was like, 'Alright, this has been a god run, but I’m done.' I wanted to rethink my life for a minute because I didn't think acting could be a career. This is the worst industry you can put yourself in because there's no security whatsoever. I mean, none," she said.
"The whole thing is based so much on opinion and nobody is wrong. That person can think I'm great, that person can think I suck, and they're both right. I was like, 'Can I really do this for the rest of my life?'
"What a lot of people don’t realize is that you make more money in TV than you will in film; it's a very steady salary. An obscene amount of money gets given to you for, like...what? So I was 20, and I looked at my bank account and realized that I was secure for the rest of my life. I was like, 'I’m okay. I can go do other things now.'"
Kunis admitted that having money was great, but that she "had been happy being poor, so having money made no difference" to her.
"I know people with money say that, but it's the truth. Of course, it's a blessing to feel like you have a roof over your head and not having to worry about where your next meal is coming from. But that blessing, I realized, comes at a price."
