Ashton Kutcher wishes he had a rewind button. If he did, he would reset his career and stay under the radar.
“Sometimes as an actor I wish I could start my career over,” Kutcher said in a recent interview with The Associated Press, “where people don’t know anything about me and I’d never do an interview and I’d never do a talk show because I’d never want them to know anything about me.”
Kutcher’s theory is that the less people know about performers’ lives, the more believable they are as characters.
“Most people probably wouldn’t recognize Gary Oldman in his everyday life because they have no idea how he walks and how he talks. He’s such a chameleon from role to role. I think if you can do this job and be successful at the level of success you want to attain and do it without any of the fame — that would be the ultimate gig.”
Kutcher, 38, is married to his “That ‘70s Show” co-star Mila Kunis. (The sitcom aired from 1998-2006.) They have a daughter, Wyatt, and Kunis is expecting their second child, a boy, later this year.
On his new Netflix comedy, “The Ranch,” Kutcher’s character, Colt Bennett, has an understanding of celebrity on a small scale. Colt was a high school and college football star who dreamed of going pro. Instead, he returns to his family’s ranch after it falls on hard times.
