A Mountain Called 'Awesome': Ashton Kutcher's Adventure
What's in a name? For Kutcher, it meant a tribute to his wife, Mila Kunis. During an appearance on "The Late Late Show with James Corden," Kutcher recounted his adventure at the South Pole where he attempted to name a mountain "Mount Mila." "You're the first person that has ever climbed this mountain. You get to name it," he recalled being told, but alas, the attempt was deemed bad luck. Instead, he chose "Awesome" in Russian, a nod to Kunis's Ukrainian heritage. "So I got to name a mountain while I was there. It was wild," he added.

Running a marathon, venturing to the South Pole, and going "Running Wild with Bear Grylls," Kutcher was all about self-discovery and gaining self-confidence. "I was just going to push it as far as I can just to get the self-confidence that I'm fully back, which I am," he told Corden.

After a hiatus from romantic comedies, Kutcher's return to the genre has been marked by a No. 1 movie on Netflix, "Your Place or Mine," co-starring Reese Witherspoon. Sharing the screen with Witherspoon was an "easy" decision for Kutcher, as he "finally got the opportunity" to work with two women he admired. Speaking to People, he praised the collaboration, saying, "'We just had fun! I can talk to Reese about anything — acting, business, kids, media, football. She's always game.'" Witherspoon mirrored his sentiments, appreciating their similar sense of humor and timing.
