Kate Hudson said she and Matthew McConaughey are both open to starring in a sequel to the 2003 rom-com “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days.”
During an appearance on “Watch What Happens Live” on Wednesday, Hudson revealed that she and McConaughey have spoken about returning to the love-torn streets of Manhattan for an encore, saying, “I think they [studios] are always thinking about that.”
Hudson stressed that she’d only consider taking on the role if there was a solid script attached to the project.
“All that matters would be the script and if Matthew and I were into the script,” Hudson said. “I think we’re both totally open; it has just never happened.”

“How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days” is based on Michele Alexander and Jeannie Long’s book of the same name. The rom-com follows Hudson and McConaughey as magazine writer Andie Anderso and advertising executive Benjamin Barry, respectively. Their paths cross when Andie begins to write a piece about how to get a man to leave you in 10 days, and Benjamin places a work bet that he can make a woman fall in love with him in the same amount of time.
McConaughey was asked about his thoughts on a sequel back in 2020, telling E!’s Daily Pop: “I mean, ‘How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days’ is teed up, you know, teed up for one that you could easily do a sequel. And that was a really good one. As far as romantic comedies go, that was a really good one.”
