We’ve waited so long for this! We remember Mila Kunis in-town filming this and now here’s the first official Trailer for LUCKIEST GIRL ALIVE!
Synopsis:
Luckiest Girl Alive centers on Ani FaNelli, a sharp-tongued New Yorker who appears to have it all: a sought-after position at a glossy magazine, a killer wardrobe, and a dream Nantucket wedding on the horizon. But when the director of a crime documentary invites her to tell her side of the shocking incident that took place when she was a teenager at the prestigious Brentley School, Ani is forced to confront a dark truth that threatens to unravel her meticulously crafted life.
LUCKIEST GIRL ALIVE arrives October 7, 2022 on Netflix.

We’re lucky to have even have had the chance to partake in any star-spotting this year given the circumstances we’ve been in! And even though what we got was a reduced version of TIFF ’21 this year, we’re still thrilled that talent still came through, while production on various Series and Films also continued around town this year. And as always we’re happy to go as close as the talent want to get, ensuring safety first. One day we’ll look back and call this our “Masked Era”.
While this is only a fraction of the quantity of star sightings we’ve had in the past, we did our best to do what we do safely. Some exciting names still passed through Toronto in 2021 and we were there!
I’d have to say it was epic that Toronto’s Simu Liu exploded onto the international stage as a mega star for his work in Marvel Studios’ SHANG-CHI AND THE LEGEND OF THE TEN RINGS. Not only was it amazing catching-up in person – he actually remembered my name – we also got a quick interview with him! Other names like Rebecca Ferguson, whom we’ve admire for quite a while, came through for TIFF ’21 and we’re glad we finally got to meet her properly! And when do we not get excited to see Jessica Chastain in-town? One of our highlights was getting a Selfie with Mila Kunis, whom we love, together with beanie bright and early in the AM? While concerts were scaled back quite a bit this year, we’re happy to have met some emerging names on the international scene who actually happen to be Canadian, like Mustafa the Poet and BBNo$! And how cool was it that hot off his venture into space, earning him the distinction of oldest person ever to go to space, William Shatner came to Toronto for Fan Expo Limited Edition?
Let’s take a walk down memory lane!
See some of our favourite star sightings of 2021, in no particular order!
While we will wait a bit for these case counts to go down, we look forward to Toronto being the star-studded City it once was once again!

Golden Globe-nominated Actress Mila Kunis is among several stars who have braved the Pandemic in Toronto. The star of successes like That ’70s Show, Black Swan, Bad Moms, Family Guy and Forgetting Sarah Marshall, has been in town with husband Ashton Kutcher and their two children the past month-plus filming upcoming Mystery LUCKIEST GIRL IN THE WORLD. Directed by Mike Barker (The Handmaid’s Tale) and adapted from Jessica Knoll‘s New York Times Bestseller, the Film centers on a woman who overcame dark past traumas to reinvent herself. The Film is set for a 2022, just having wrapped its Toronto portion. Production completes in New York City.
The star made headlines recently when it was revealed she and husband Kutcher only bathe their children when absolutely required. Okay, even I admit I thought that was unusual! This sparked Kutcher and Kunis to post this funny video in response to the talk.
We’ve always loved Kunis and the personable warmth she brings into her roles. No matter who she is playing, she somehow makes her characters feel lived-in and like people I know.
beanie and I were so fortunate to get a Selfie with Kunis wrapping in the City after having been spotted filming in the downtown core, all the way out to Cobourg. When we met her, she was filming a scene at Indigo Bookstore in Bloor, looking a vision. Author Knoll who adapted to Screenplay for the Film also was seen on-set where Crew were treated to Tiny Tom Doughnuts and a fancy Coffee Truck overnight!
Respecting social distancing, Kunis was more than kind to look back for a Selfie before heading off. We’re so happy!
Cannot wait to see LUCKIEST GIRL ALIVE, which will stream on Netflix!
