Mila Kunis Talks 'Black Swan' Prep: Diet, Bruises and Dancing
Mila Kunis talked about how she got ready for her role in the movie 'Black Swan'.
To get into shape, she danced for a really long time each day and didn't eat much.
She had to drink a lot of broth and practice constantly.
The movie's start was delayed, so she and Natalie Portman had even more time to practice.
She got hurt while filming, like bruises and even a dislocated shoulder, but with help, she recovered.
The movie itself is a psychological horror film directed by Darren Aronofsky.
Mila Kunis discussed her role preparation for the 2010 film 'Black Swan'.
The preparation involved intense dance practice and a restricted diet.
Kunis danced up to 12 hours daily, often surviving on broth.
Extended preparation time allowed for more dance practice due to financing issues.
Kunis sustained injuries during filming, including bruises and a dislocated shoulder.
