Kunis and McKinnon to co-star in spy movie

-

Mila Kunis and Kate McKinnon are in talks to co-star in 'The Spy Who Dumped Me'. The actresses are being considered for the leading roles in the movie, written and directed by Susanna Fogel, about two best friends who become caught up in internatio­nal espionage after one of their former boyfriends was revealed as a spy, The Wrap reports. Brian Grazer and Imagine Entertainm­ent are producing the movie for Lionsgate. Meanwhile, last year Mila, 33, who has two children with husband Ashton Kutcher, said that she was sick of being compromise­d in her career because of her gender and she had learned to stand up for herself. She said: "It's what we are conditione­d to believe - that if we speak up, our livelihood­s will be threatened ... Throughout my career, there have been moments when I have been insulted, sidelined, paid less, creatively ignored, and otherwise diminished based on my gender. And always, I tried to give people the benefit of the doubt; maybe they knew more, maybe they had more experience, maybe there was something I was missing ... "I'm done compromisi­ng; even more so, I'm done with being compromise­d. So from this point forward, when I am confronted with one of these comments, subtle or overt, I will address them head on; I will stop in the moment and do my best to educate. I cannot guarantee that my objections will be taken to heart, but at least now I am part of creating an environmen­t where there is the opportunit­y for growth. And if my comments fall on deaf ears, I will choose to walk away."
