Mila Kunis is interested in appearing in the movie adaptation of the erotic novel 'Fifty Shades of Grey', despite the risque theme.

"There are times when you just want to do something fun and different, because you're going to have a good time doing it," the 29-year-old actress said to British newspaper The Sun. According to a report in Times of India.

The novel, and sequels Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed, follows the S 'n' M relationship between innocent student Anastasia and businessman Christian.

On the other hand, British actresses Emma Watson and Felicity Jones have also been linked to the role, while Ryan Gosling and Bradley Cooper are said to be in line to play kinky billionaire Christian Grey.

The E.L. James book has sold 65 million copies and is being adapted into a movie by British screenwriter Kelly Marcel, who promises to make it raunchy.
