Ashton Digging More "'70s"

With a sizzling romance and soaring screen career, life's just groovy for Ashton Kutcher. But this dude isn't ready to give up his day job just yet.

Kutcher has inked a deal with That '70s Show producer Carsey-Werner-Mandabach that will keep him on the Fox sitcom through the 2004-05 season. He was already under contract for the upcoming season.

The lanky actor, who plays Kelso on the Wonder Woman-era show, will reportedly receive $250,000-$300,000 per episode or $6 million to $8 million for the series' seventh season.

Last October, fellow cast members Mila Kunis (Jackie), Danny Masterson (Hyde), Laura Prepon (Donna) and Wilmer Valderrama (Fez) negotiated en masse to keep slacking in the Foreman's basement through 2005. The actors allegedly snagged salaries estimated to top $100,000 each per episode.

No announcement has been made for series star Topher Grace.

Recently, Kutcher has eclipsed Grace as the series' breakout star--at least in inches of media coverage. His relationship with Charlie's fallen Angel Demi Moore has kept newshounds busy for weeks, and People magazine just announced Kutcher as the winner of their Hottest Bachelor readers' poll versus Prince William.

But he's not just a pretty face--despite what his alter ego Kelso might say.

Kutcher, creator and executive producer of Punk'd, recently signed on for another two years of the MTV hidden-camera series. The Dude, Where's My Car? star is also in demand as a leading, er, dude. There's a sequel in the works to the 2000 comedy costarring fellow dude Seann William Scott, titled Seriously Dude, Where's My Car?

But first, he'll star in a madcap comedy opposite Tara Reid called My Boss's Daughter this August. Next, he'll delve into a psychological thriller The Butterfly Effect which features a troubled man whose repeated attempts at time travel back to childhood keep having unintended results on his present self, due in theaters February 2004. Then he'll star in M. Night Shyamalan's The Woods, a thriller set in 1897 about a small village in rural Pennsylvania surrounded by a forest filled with mythical creatures.
