Now that there's a break in the comic-to-film arena, another video game character is making the leap to the big screen in an effort to grab a piece of the action pie. In the latest big screen video game adaptation, Mark Wahlberg, Mila Kunis, Chris "Ludacris" Bridges, and Beau Bridges have teamed up to give fans a movie version of Max Payne, the popular PC to multi-platform game that hit the market back in 2001. With Wahlberg stepping into the shoes of Max Payne, gamers will now get to see Kunis in the role of Mona Sax, Ludacris as Jim Bravura, and Beau Bridges in the role of B.B. Hensley, with Chris O'Donnell playing Jason Colvin.

Leading up to the release of Max Payne, Mark Wahlberg, Beau Bridges, Chris "Ludacris" Bridges, and Mila Kunis turned up at the Hilton in Beverly Hills for the official Max Payne press conference where they dished on everything from weapons training and making the film to playing video games and why the movie had to be PG-13.

Mila, this is your first kick-butt action role, did you enjoy the clothes, the guns and the training? Was it different for you?

MILA KUNIS: I didn’t enjoy the clothes very much. I enjoyed the guns and I enjoyed the training a lot.

What did you have to do?

KUNIS: I had weapons safety, and then I had to - John, for some reason, made me learn how to take an MK5H apart and put it back together blindfolded. I really don’t know why, but I now know how to do that in case anyone wants it. I liked shooting the gun a lot more than I thought I would. I think I like that. The clothes sucked. Oh my God, it was awful. Mark was like bundled up in jackets and wet suits and coats and turtlenecks, and I was in a leather bustier and black pants and 5-inch heels.

CHRIS "LUDACRIS" BRIDGES: Well, it looked good. It was sexy.

MARK WAHLBERG: She needed to understand actor safety. She’s swinging that stick at me like a wild person. You’re not supposed to hit somebody in the movies.

KUNIS: You kind of liked it.

WAHLBERG: It’s just make pretend, only I get to hit for real.

KUNIS: Okay, okay.

For each of you, can you talk about what attracted you to this project and what you enjoyed most about making this film

CHRIS BRIDGES: Well, I’ve already said what attracted me to the project was being able to point a gun at Mark Wahlberg and get away with it, and live to tell about it today. So, you know, that’s definitely why I signed on to do this movie, just to point a gun at this man.

WAHLBERG: I thought he liked me. [laughS]

CHRIS BRIDGES: No, I’m just messing with him, but honestly I try to pick those diverse roles and things that I haven’t done before. This is my first time getting a little piece of the action, and then playing on that side of the law. You know, I love surprising myself, and, of course, everyone else that watches. So Jim Bravura, Internal Affairs Agent, my first time actually playing that role and enjoyed doing it. It was actually written for a 60-year-old white man. I went to audition for it. I got the call from John Moore two days later saying that I got the part and I was extremely excited. I’m even more excited for this to come out on October 17th.

WAHLBERG: And Theater of the Mind coming out on November 25th.

CHRIS BRIDGES: See, he knows. [laughs] Mila...

KUNIS: I just really wanted to beat Mark up, and I did and it was really great.

WAHLBERG: I'm a parent.

KUNIS: It was really empowering. I got a lot of my anger out, and angst and yeah, that’s it.

BEAU BRIDGES: I had never heard of the game, Max Payne, but I have five kids. When I told them, I said, "I’m going to be in ‘Max Payne’," they said, 'Max Payne! Oh, man!' So I knew it was a game that had a big following. So that was exciting. And then I read the script and you could just tell by the descriptions that it was going to have a real high sense of style, and John Moore really brought that. It’s always exciting to be in something that has that going for it. He’s from that whole technical side, and brought that understanding to it.

But apart from that, we also, in the very beginning, talked a lot about the human element to the characters and I always like that, you know, getting into background. We didn’t rehearse so much all the words, but just really talking about where these people come from and why they do what they do. I think it’s a real strong story - this guy who’s going off to find the killer of his wife and child. That’s something different from a lot of game movies that come out of games and the play’s the thing, like Shakespeare said a long time ago. So I’m glad to be a part of it. I enjoyed it thoroughly.

WAHLBERG: I just did it because they offered it to me. [laughs] I just played a science teacher in The Happening, I played an accountant in The Lovely Bones, and it was time to go back and do what I think best suits me, busting some heads and having some fun and kicking ass on the bad guys.

Chris, were you looking for a role like this? It’s very different from what you’ve played before.

CHRIS BRIDGES: Yes, exactly what I've - that’s pretty much what I was saying about why I took the role. I always look for something that I haven’t necessarily done yet because I like to, of course, expand my body of work, and I think that this adds to the resume of me continuing to do different roles. So absolutely, I was looking for a role like this.

Mark, there are some signature Max Payne moves that you get to do, like the double guns in slow motion. How did it feel to act those out?

WAHLBERG: The idea of it was fun, but I'm not as young as I used to be. It wasn't like we had a gigantic budget, so we were on a green screen with wires and everything. We basically shot all the action on film. But no, being able to do those kind of things, and especially the third act of the film when he finally actually takes the drug and really goes crazy, it's what every kid dreams about doing.

BEAU BRIDGES: He'd come to work every time... He would probably never talk about this, but he'd have some new Band-Aid on him, a new thing wrapped up. [laughs] He does some pretty remarkable physical fetes in this.

WAHLBERG: Yeah, John is a very demanding director, you know. And he knows exactly what he's doing. We wanted to make it look real so we just basically got in there and tried to do as much as possible.

Talk about your character's darker side?

BEAU BRIDGES: I still haven't seen the film... I'm really excited to see it, but I've seen snatches of it and I think what hopefully will set it apart for an adventure film, because that's really what it is at its heart is an entertainment film. But these characters are very lifelike and nothing is as it seems. None of the people are what you [would expect] when you first meet them, who you think they are and they turn out to be may be something a little different. But I was really attracted to the whole kind of father-son relationship that my character had with Max Payne. And we hit it off pretty good at the beginning. I have great respect for him. He comes really loaded for bear when it comes to...

WAHLBERG: Well, that was mutual for sure.

BEAU BRIDGES: And I know he's a family guy. He's a dad and I responded to all that. So it wasn't much of a stretch to get into that part of our relationship, and I think it was real key to tell the story, the movie that we did. But I think BB, my guy, he just really wants Max to evolve to his fullest potential. I think that's really where he wants to take it. Max just doesn't see the light, fortunately.

Is there any correlation between Vincent Chase on "Entourage" playing "Aquaman" and you playing "Max Payne"?

WAHLBERG: No. No, there will be if they ask me to do the sequel. Chris Bridges is going to play Max Payne in the sequel. We've already discussed that. No, Vince is not so smart when it comes to making his choices and obviously in this business, it's all about making the right choices. Me and Chris have talked about it quite a bit, both coming from the music world. No, Vince is, hopefully he'll rebound. It's going to be a long journey. People have enjoyed this season more than anything because they like seeing people down. He's going to go to a pretty dark place before he gets to rebound so I hope you guys enjoy it.

Is there a continuity error between when you hit Chris O'Donnell and only later he has the injury?

WAHLBERG: Yeah, it's called trying to make a PG-13 so you can't hit him and then see the blood coming out, but later on if he's a little bit bloodied up, then it's okay. It's called trying to trick everybody into giving you a PG-13 because we want more people to see this film. If not, if we weren't making a PG-13, you would've heard a lot of ‘f*ck’s from me, that's for sure. You only get one and they gave it to this young lady. I was f*ckin' pissed, believe me. I said ‘sh*t’ every chance I got. No, again, we were trying to make a movie that was entertaining and driven by emotion, so the F bomb really - I think all that stuff would have kind of diluted it anyway. Too much of it just kind of makes it into something else. but yeah, there were little tricks that we had to do like you see very little blood from the gunshots and stuff like that. So yeah, but good eye, good eye. I see what you're looking for in the film.

Was there a mishap between Mark and Mila on the set?

WAHLBERG: With this wild one here? She's just swinging that f*ckin' thing like a mad person. I told her, 'You know, you're not supposed to hit.'

KUNIS: I'm a method actress, so I took my job very seriously. I insisted on practicing a lot. What mishap?

WAHLBERG: I thought I was a pretty sympathetic guy. Chris wants to pull guns out on me, she wants to hit me, Beau liked me but then again he turned into a wild person at the end. They're making fun of me on Saturday Night Live. What's going on here? I'm a father now, I got three kids. Come on, give me a break.

What was your reaction to the SNL skit?

WAHLBERG: You know what? It's flattering. It wasn't obviously as funny as the Tina Fey-Sarah Palin thing, so I don't know. Maybe it's a little jab because I've refused to do the show so many times, but I don't know. Yeah, it was funny. 'Say hi to your mother for me, is my new catch phrase even though I never really said that before, but I'll take it and run with it. No, it was not as funny as "Hot Rod" the movie, but kid's gotta do what he's gotta do to make a living. I ain't knockin' it. It's all good.

Was it harder to go to that dark place since you have your own family?

WAHLBERG: Definitely. I'm not one of those Shakespearean actors that thinks about the color blue or goes to that place, or thinks about that place when I wanted to hide and be alone as a kid. I have my past, which has got a lot of stuff to draw from, and I have children so I think about something horrible happening to my family. That's why I can't wait until the last day of shooting so I can go home and hug my kids and get those thoughts out of my head.

How hard was it to come into The Lovely Bones at the last minute?

WAHLBERG: The last minute was fine. The only thing, again, I was worried about was dealing with the subject matter and having to go to that place, which is also why Max Payne was such a great release afterwards because the other side of me would want to go out and wreak havoc on whoever was responsible, and I got to do that through this film. But the experience working with Peter Jackson was like no other. I've always wanted to direct. I thought after working with many of the great directors, that I picked up a lot of things along the way. Like a lot of actors, you get a great script, you hire a great cinematographer and producer, you get great actors, you can make a pretty good movie. But I don't think you can do what Peter Jackson can do, and I would like to be able to at least shoot for that level of ability one day. I don't think I'll ever get there, but it was the most amazing experience of my career.

Was it fun on set or did you stay in that dark place?

WAHLBERG: Did it look fun? It was not, no.

BEAU BRIDGES: It was cold.

CHRIS BRIDGES: Bone cold, yeah.

BEAU BRIDGES: Yeah, it was a raging snow storm when we first started there in Toronto, so... But that was great and I'm sure that's one of the reasons they chose that place. The snow storm is a big character in the game and it is in the movie. Then afterwards we had to recreate that snow, so then it was a different problem. We had these big slow moving flakes.

WAHLBERG: Wax, yeah.

BEAU BRIDGES: That would sit in your hair and people would have to come up and...

WAHLBERG: Swallow it.

BEAU BRIDGES: But the guys in the crew, the ladies and men in the crew, they were the ones that had the toughest go because we would be able to go in these little huts and they'd have some heaters in there, but even so, I'd come out and, you know, if I had a long spiel or something, I could hardly get my jaw to move in the cold to say the words.

WAHLBERG: And John also, right before we started shooting, if a big storm was coming in, he'd call the crew up in the middle of the night and say, 'Let's go, get the cameras.' You know, we'd go out there and shoot some additional footage. They definitely were thrilled that they had those kind of conditions.

Chris, did you have conversations with Mark about Samuel L. Jackson's comments about rappers moving to acting and taking jobs from real actors? Did you mention him in your song to get back at him?

CHRIS BRIDGES: I mean, nobody ever-like, actors - I only hear about it through other people. No one has ever said anything to my face.

WAHLBERG: Sam was mad for a little while. I think he's come around now. Sam lives right around the corner from me. Sam is mad at the supermarket when I see him. People come up to him and they're like, 'Mr. Jackson.' - 'Nah, nah.'

CHRIS BRIDGES: I actually just had a party at Comic Con and he came through there, so when I said that in that verse, it was kind of just poking fun. That's all it was. It was a play off words, but at the end of the day, like he said about the actors and them griping about some rappers taking their jobs, I hear about it through other people but no one's ever said anything directly to me.

WAHLBERG: Well, the thing is, certainly when I started, it was an extremely difficult thing to become a respected actor and not many musicians had done it. But if you look at Chris's approach, it's not like, ‘Okay, I'm kinda coming in and out, taking a couple of paychecks and not really respecting the art form and trying to grow as an actor and trying to be taken seriously.' We've talked a lot. We have a lot in common. He's asked me advice. He's not too cool to say, 'Hey, what do you think about this? What do you think about that?' I think he's going to have a long, lengthy career. but before me and Will Smith there weren't many people who had done it successfully.

So, you know, if you got a buncha guys just coming in, taking roles from great actors, a guy like Sam Jackson who's one of the finest actors in the business and didn't really get his break until late in life, so I can understand where he's coming from, but you have to talk about the individuals that are doing it. And Chris is a guy who has much respect for the art form and has continued to try - I told him, it's a marathon. It's not a sprint, and he's really choosing roles to continue to grow as an actor, work with people that he can learn from and become better.

CHRIS BRIDGES: The check is in the mail.

WAHLBERG: The next Will Smith, baby.

Mila, was there any room for levity in this?

KUNIS: Oh, what were you going to say?

WAHLBERG: Nothing. No, she is very funny.

KUNIS: Mark doesn't think I'm very funny.

WAHLBERG: She's mean.

KUNIS: See? See, that's funny. No, you know, no, Mona Sax wasn't very funny, but coming off of Sarah Marshall, I got to laugh by myself in my hotel room plenty. No, I'm kidding. It was fine. It was different but it was fine. Yeah, I liked it, but it was very different.

Do you have to turn it off?

KUNIS: Around him, yeah. Absolutely.

WAHLBERG: She never stopped, she never stopped.

KUNIS: I stopped. I stopped after like two weeks. I was like, 'Eh, f*ck this, I won't be funny.' See, they laugh. It's amazing what happens. No, I'm kidding, I'm kidding, I'm totally kidding. I have this odd tendency to be really sarcastic when I'm uncomfortable, and I don't really know why but it just comes out, and it's come out since I was a child. And Mark makes me incredibly uncomfortable, so thus I do dumb shit in front of him and made dumb comments. And then halfway through he just looks at me and goes, 'What?' And then I was like, 'Aw, fuck.'

WAHLBERG: Well, you'll be standing there and she'll come up and kick you from behind. She's like, 'Oh, that was really funny. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.' I'm like, why was that...

KUNIS: That was different. No, no, that was different.

WAHLBERG: Yeah, she cracks herself up, that's for sure.

KUNIS: I do. I make myself laugh all the time. I think I'm really funny. I do.

What was the biggest challenge of the role?

WAHLBERG: Well, the biggest challenge for me was going to that emotional place and having to imagine something horrible happening to my family. And then the biggest physical challenge was keeping up the mystery and the façade that I'm actually tough and cool and that I can go and do all this action stuff and it doesn't hurt and I'm not scared, because I'm not the thrill seeker that I used to be. Having three children, I told Chris, you know, he says, 'Oh, I gotta get this new motorcycle.' I said, 'No, I gave my motorcycle away. No more jumping out of planes or off of buildings or any of that stuff.' I said in between movies, I tell them to wrap me up in cellophane so nothing happens, because I want to be able to play with my kids.

I've been very fortunate, very lucky. I've a bunch of close calls, but a movie like this, you want to get in there and make it as realistic as possible but not anything too dangerous. I got a few guys that look exactly like me. Even when I'm driving down the street, if I see somebody who looks like me, I ask them if they're willing to jump out a window or get hit by a car. No faster than 35 miles an hour, of course, but yeah.

Do you have any advice for husbands?

WAHLBERG:Treat people the way you'd like to be treated. Humble yourself and glorify God, that's another good one.

If there were to be a sequel to the game, would you do another movie?

WAHLBERG: If I don't, Chris will. We already talked about that, but my whole thing is if we can make it better than the first. And my other thing is I really love when this character takes that little blue drug, so if we could have him crazy the whole time, than that'd be another thing that would appeal to me. You guys? We've gotta do a Mona Sax spinoff, that's for sure.

KUNIS: Yeah, I agree with Mark.

WAHLBERG: Did you sign your life away in your contract for four sequels?

KUNIS: I did. My soul is now given to 20th Century Fox. No, I would absolutely do it. I liked working on this. I enjoyed working with Mark. If there were to be...

WAHLBERG: For real?

KUNIS: For real. For real.

WAHLBERG: Aw.

KUNIS: You're welcome.

WAHLBERG: Thank you.

KUNIS: But if there were to be a sequel, I'd like to have a scene with somebody else other than Mark. That would be nice, too.

WAHLBERG: See?

KUNIS: See, but that's funny. They kinda chuckled. Ugh.

WAHLBERG: 'Cause they don't wanna make you feel bad. You're trying so hard.

KUNIS: No, but seriously, I would wanna work with Beau because you and I never got to do anything except hang out on set.

BEAU BRIDGES: It'd have to be a prequel.

WAHLBERG: Do the prequel and Beau and you can have a love child. Beau would like that part.

KUNIS: Maybe I am the love child.

BEAU BRIDGES: Ooh, there you go. Nice, call John Moore immediately.

KUNIS: See, it can happen. And Chris and I met two days ago.

CHRIS BRIDGES: Exactly, and I mean, being a black man that didn't die in the first one, I definitely would be looking forward to the sequel, thank you. Thank you, yes, very much. I take pride.

Mark, you mentioned retiring at 40?

WAHLBERG: I said a lotta dumb sh*t in my career. I've said a lotta dumb things. You know what? I have a family, so I don't want to - I've been focusing on me and my career for quite some time, and they are definitely the priority now. So if I can find a nice balance to work here and there on things that I'm very passionate about, but still be around to take my kids to school and pick them up after, and drag them to the golf course with me, then I'd like to do that. But I can't be working at the pace that I am for much longer, but maybe forty-five now. We'll see.

Are you thinking about getting married?

WAHLBERG: Yeah, we're talking about getting married in August, yeah.

Congratulations.

WAHLBERG: Thank you. August. It's a good month.

KUNIS: I think so.

WAHLBERG: We're not inviting yet.

KUNIS: Well, why don't you do it on August 14th?

WAHLBERG: What's that, your birthday?

KUNIS: My birthday.

WAHLBERG: Oh, cool.

KUNIS: That way, we can have a dual wedding/birthday party. You pay for it, I'll totally come.

WAHLBERG: Okay.

KUNIS: I think it's so good. Come on, Mark.

WAHLBERG: We'll think about that. That's a good date.

KUNIS: I'll baby sit.

WAHLBERG: See, I don't trust you around my kids.

KUNIS: What? I love your kids, they're great.

WAHLBERG: Not a chance.

KUNIS: Next question.

Mila, you were commenting on the wardrobe, but the 14-year-old boys will love it.

KUNIS: Oh, good.

Getting into this boys’ club, do you have to out-macho them?

KUNIS: I don't need to try to out-macho them. I mean, look at right here. Who's machoer? Me. I am very tough, as Mark will tell you. Yes, of course. I am so not a tough person. Yeah, it's a little hard but I'm used to, from '70s’, being around so many boys all the time. I'm used to a different relationship. I'm just more used to being picked on and being like ‘ha ha’ and just more funny versus trying to kick ass and pretend like I'm really tough and know what I'm doing, like I never had to do that in life.

And this was definitely the first time ever where I was like, ‘Okay, this is very strange and very unknown territory to me,’ but I liked it because it was such a challenge. But I did, I liked it a lot. I hated the clothes so much. What made me feel empowered was the gun, not the clothes. Like, if I had the gun, it didn't matter what your size was, what your stature was, as long as I was holding the weapon, I win. So, that was really great. But the heels sucked. Oh my God, it was awful. And, like, five inches of snow in five inch heels, you can't look sexy and you can't look like you know what you're doing because you'll fall, and I'm klutzy. It's bad.

Are there games you like to play?

KUNIS: Golf [for Mark]

WAHLBERG: I got Sega '92 and '93 hockey when they still had the fighting. Guys would fall down and blood'd spill out of their head.

BEAU BRIDGES: I'm big on Pong.

KUNIS: I like World of Warcraft, but that's not a video game.

WAHLBERG: She's a geeky gamer for sure. She knew everything about Comic Con.

CHRIS BRIDGES: Yeah, you did. I still got like "Street Fighter" and "NBA Jam" at my house.

KUNIS: Do you play "Soul Caliber"?

CHRIS BRIDGES: Mm-mm.

KUNIS: If you like "Street Fighter", you'd like "Soul Caliber".

CHRIS BRIDGES: Yeah, the actual arcade game.

Were any of you familiar with Max Payne before you signed on?

KUNIS: I was.

CHRIS BRIDGES: Yes, yes.

WAHLBERG: I found out about the game after reading the script.

Chris, what can you tell us about the record?

KUNIS: November 25th it comes out.

WAHLBERG: "Theater of the Mind".

CHRIS BRIDGES: They know it. They can tell you everything.

KUNIS: T.I.'s on it, Game's on it, Lil' Wayne guest stars on it.

CHRIS BRIDGES: Co-stars.

KUNIS: Co-stars, co-stars, my bad.

CHRIS BRIDGES: See. Yeah, they pretty much got us hooked up, but November 25th is album number six for me, "Theater of the Mind", concept-type record. My experience of doing the movies, I kind of took that experience and put it towards the album. So when I say every song is a movie-- like she said, I have costars on it instead of features. A lotta storytelling songs and basically where you have to use your imagination, like if I provide you the audio on this album, the rest is up to the theater of your mind.

How about using your imagination on a film set, like Game?

CHRIS BRIDGES: Yeah, that's going to be interesting. He's referring to a movie called The Game that comes out in '09, and basically Gerard Butler is the star of it. And it's crazy because it's set in the future. It's a futuristic action film. And Brian Taylor and Mark Neveldine, who wrote and directed Crank with Jason Statham, they actually did this movie. And I'm a part of it, and basically it's kind of reminiscent of The Running Man a little bit, but only set in the future where you have convicts that are being played as actual video games. So if you can imagine how interactive games are today, imagine in the future that there'll be people playing other people as actual video games, and that's what that movie's all about. So yeah, they're working on all of that stuff now. It's going to be interesting in 2009 to check that out.

Did you ad lib the Russian in the movie?

KUNIS: Honestly, I don't really remember. I think it was probably written in the script, like 'They speak Russian' and Olga and I were like, ‘Okay.’

What did you say?

KUNIS: Well, no, no, so we showed up to set and we just kind of, I mean, if I'm not mistaken, it might have been John wrote something the day before, was kind of like, 'Get over here, come home.' It was very simple dialogue. And then Olga and I just translated it.

What character that you've played would make a good Halloween costume?

BEAU BRIDGES: Richard Nixon. I played him one time. He was pretty spooky.

Dirk Diggler?

WAHLBERG: Yeah.

Have you ever seen a Dirk Diggler costume?

WAHLBERG: Yes, I have. I was at the Eagles game last week and this guy had an Eagles shirt that said Dirk Diggler on the back.

What about working with John Moore?

WAHLBERG: John's phenomenal. I don't know why he's not here today. Oh, he's out with laryngitis?

CHRIS BRIDGES: I know why he doesn't have a voice because when we were on set, he's so passionate about the takes that he would either yell at the top of his lungs when he did something right, and when something went wrong, you would hear another kind of yell, basically. So that's how passionate he was. It's the first director I worked with who, every time you got something right, you'd hear, 'Yeah!', like just completely, honestly speaking. So that's what it was like working with him, very passionate about every single thing. But he's really good, very strategic.

Were you apprehensive about the stigma of video game movies?

WAHLBERG: It wasn't really brought to my attention how many movies had actually been adapted from games. When I read the script, a bit of a red flag popped up only because I grew up playing Atari and Pacman and Asteroids and there's not much of a story there. But seeing this game and realizing how elaborate the story is and how cinematic it is and how much games have changed, I don't care where the stories come from as long as they're interesting and there's fresh ways to tell them. There's only so many stories to tell anyway, but obviously knowing how important this game is for a lot of the diehard game fans, we obviously wanted to satisfy them and then hopefully introduce a bunch of other people through the movie to the game.

What's next for everybody?

KUNIS: I just wrapped on Friday a thing called Extract. It's Mike Judge's next movie. It's in the vein of Office Space. It's Jason Bateman, Ben Affleck, myself, Kristin Wiig, J.K. Simmons, it's really, really funny. Takes place in an extract factory, but very, very funny.

BEAU BRIDGES: I'm doing a new series for ABC that we'll start shooting in a couple of weeks. It'll be out probably January, February. I play Alyssa Milano's somewhat dysfunctional father.

WAHLBERG: Slash lover?

BEAU BRIDGES: I'll talk to her about that. It's called "Single with Parents". Annie Potts is my crazy exotic ex-wife. Should be fun.

WAHLBERG: Chris, "Theater of the Mind", November 25th.

KUNIS: "Game", 2009.

CHRIS BRIDGES: Yeah, see, they already know, and then RocknRolla, which is out in LA and New York now and comes out the rest of the country on October 31st. That's Guy Ritchie wrote and directed, so those three projects pretty much for me.

WAHLBERG: Lovely Bones coming out next year, and trying to figure out what I'm going to do next.

Were you a fan of Chris's music before you met him?

KUNIS: Yes, yes, and let me just tell you, I was tested already.

CHRIS BRIDGES: She passed the test.

KUNIS: And I passed it and I didn't think the test was very fun. It was not - it made me very uncomfortable. I didn't know it was going to happen. It was for what, like, E News or one of them shows, was like, ‘This is gonna be really funny. Let's test your knowledge of Chr[is]... I was like, ‘Oh, my God!’

CHRIS BRIDGES: She got every question right, so yes, she must be.

KUNIS: So yes, I was a fan.

Did you get to hear the new album?

KUNIS: No, but he gave me a rap name. Like within two hours, I had a whole new rap name. What's my rap name?

CHRIS BRIDGES: Less than, like, two minutes.

KUNIS: Yeah, what, go ahead.
