Mila Kunis interview at Sundance Film Festival 2020 for Four Good Days with Glenn Close and Rodrigo Garcia via Deadline.

Based on a true story by Pulitzer Prize-winning Washington Post writer Eli Saslow, the film stars Kunis as Molly, a 31-year-old woman who begs her estranged mother Deb (Close) for help in fighting a fierce battle against the demons that have derailed her life. Despite all she has learned over a decade of disappointment, grief and rage, Deb throws herself into one last attempt to save her beloved daughter from the deadly and merciless grip of heroin addiction. Now reunited, they work to regain the love and trust that once held them together.

Four Good Days comes out in theaters April 30th, 2021 and will be available to stream on-demand on May 21st, 2021.

Stephen Root, Joshua Leonard and Sam Hennings co-star in the emotional drama, which Rodrigo García directs from a script he co-wrote with Saslow. García also produced the film with Jon Avnet, Marina Grasic, Jake Avnet and Jai Khanna.

While the opportunity to work opposite Close was undeniably exciting for Kunis, the idea of transforming herself to play a drug addict also proved appealing. Asking the film’s hair designer to bleach her hair blonde, and ruin it in the process, the actress was covered with prosthetic scars for the role. Additionally, she would have to wear prosthetic teeth, given the fact that at some point, Molly had her own choppers taken by meth. “It is really fun to do something so outside the norm. When you go see the best special effects guy, who makes the most beautiful meth teeth, it sounds so weird to say, but you put it on, and you’re like, ‘Well, this is fun to play with.’ Then, you have to be able to teach yourself to speak with this mouth, and not sound like you’re lisping,” the actress said, sitting down at Deadline’s Sundance Studio with Close and García. “So, that was actually really fun, to walk around the house with this weird meth mouth, and then the physicality of it.”
