Kate Hudson knows it when she sees a good romantic comedy, The Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery actress, 43, said during her appearance on the Hot Ones that “a truly good story” may make a good romantic comedy stand out.

When asked what makes a good movie in the genre, Hudson replied, fighting back tears brought on by the show’s hot sauce sampling. “Let’s start with that,” she remarked.

“I think sometimes people think rom-coms are all about the meet-cute,” Hudson said. “A great rom-com is about meeting love, discovering love, falling in love, love falling apart, and then how you come back together. That’s a very traditional rom-com structure.”

“The ones that we love are with two movie stars in a love story. They’re shiny and they’re bright and it’s like wish fulfillment,” she continued. “It’s supposed to make you feel fuzzy, and then they stay with you forever. They’re the most classic.”

“Just because they’re supposed to feel brilliant doesn’t mean they need to look so bright,” she continued.

She continued, “I believe the genre oftentimes becomes kind of dumbed down because they think they know. “The chemistry comes next. Thank goodness it was just me and Matthew [McConaughey, her co-star in How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days] because he’s a hoot.”

Apparently, Hudson could teach a course on romantic comedies: “When I’m 75, I’ll be [teaching] that subject at the NYU film school. I’ll be the rom-com professor.”

The celebrity is well-known for romantic comedies including How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2003), My Best Friend’s Girl (2008), Fool’s Gold (2008), Bride Wars (2009), Something Borrowed (2011), Mother’s Day (2016), and others.

In an interview with ELLE from back in August 2020, Hudson spoke on the relationship between her and McConaughey’s characters in How to Lose a Guy. She stated that she believed the couple would be “miserable” if they remained together.

“I’ve always thought about what Matthew and I’s characters would be now if we were still together. It’s actually probably a good amount of time [that has passed] to make a movie about it. We probably would have gotten married with kids. We’re probably miserable right now!” Hudson said.

Not all of her forecasts for the characters were gloomy. Andie would undoubtedly have pursued her goals and succeeded in her job after the movie ended, the speaker said.

“But I think Andie Anderson is ambitious, and she was wanting to go places, and she was sort of stuck in this job. I loved what we created with that movie,” the actress added. “And she found love that would support her ambitions. Andie would probably be running something at this point.”
