Ray Liotta, Mila Kunis and Mark Ruffalo will join Tina Fey and Steve Carell on their comedic “Date Night” for Fox.

The three will be among the characters Fey and Carell encounter as a couple on a date gone awry. Mark Wahlberg, James Franco, Taraji P. Henson, Common, Leighton Meester, Kristen Wiig and Jimmi Simpson already are in the mix. The film is being directed by Shawn Levy.

Liotta will play Joe Miletto, whom Levy describes as a “villain of peace.” Kunis will play the low-rent criminal wife of Franco’s character. Ruffalo will play Wiig’s husband and Carell’s best friend.

“Date Night,” which began shooting last month, was written by Josh Klausner.

Liotta, repped by WMA and Untitled Entertainment, most recently appeared in “Observe and Report.” He has “Youth in Revolt” and Tim Allen’s directorial debut, “Crazy on the Outside,” forthcoming.

Kunis, repped by CAA and Curtis Talent Management, most recently starred in “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” and “Max Payne.” She next appears in “Extract.”

Ruffalo, repped by WMA and Robert Stein Management, next appears in “The Brothers Bloom,” which opens Friday.
