 NEW YORK (AP) - Ashton Kutcher says the concept for his new movie, "Guess Who," started with P. Diddy. "The idea really came from when I was spending time with Sean Combs and people couldn't figure out why the two of us were hanging out together," Kutcher says in the April issue of Interview magazine. "They really couldn't look past the race line."
"Guess Who," which debuted at No. 1 at the box office last weekend, is a remake of the 1967 classic "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner." In the present incarnation, many of the characters' races have been flipped. Kutcher plays Sidney Poitier's role and Bernie Mac is a version of Spencer Tracy.
"In certain places in the United States I really think that people aren't just looking at people as people," says Kutcher. "So I did this movie with the hope of changing people's minds."
