Kate Hudson and Hugh Jackman Try to Guess Their Projects From Hilariously Bad Descriptions

An extremely long back and forth over two carbs. Well, Italian would be... that could be nine. It could be... I have a little game called Bad Description. Oh. I've taken your projects and written the worst possible log lines I could ever come up with. I want to see if you can guess what I'm talking about. Which may be... Yeah, cookies or shows, and then I have some follow-ups. Okay. So the first one. Proof that some men really do love a challenge. Is it? Oh, wait. It's one of yours. One of... How to lose a guy in ten days. Or, as some people like to call it, ten ways to lose a guy. When I watched you in Ten Ways to Lose a Guy. How to lose a guy in ten days. So many people say ten ways to lose a guy. Do they? Laughing. Oh my god. Yeah, it's like... Well, there's like a million different ways that they say it. Ten ways to lose a guy. They say ten things I hate about you, which is another movie. Yeah, right. Yeah. There's an amazing video of you and your mom laughing, and you have the same laugh. It was so cute. You probably know this question is coming, and I'm sorry to ask it again. Okay. But bullying works, right? So we've gotten Freakier Friday, and we've got Devil Wears Prada 2. So where's the sequel? What's the latest on that? Oh, gosh. I know you've been asked it a lot. You know, it's one of those things that comes up all the time. That even Matthew and I are like, you know, should we be doing a how to lose a guy in ten days reunion? That'd be cool. Yeah, it just has to be right, and if it is and it happens, then we would probably do it, I think. But it's not in the works. We all want it. As of now. If that film was made today, so not for a sequel, but if it was made for the first time today in 2025, what are some red flags you think Andy would use? Oh, definitely stuff on... I mean, social media would be a big... 100%. Oh, yeah. I mean, she'd post so many pictures. That's exactly what I had written down. And she would like his things and write things on his, comment on him, his stuff all the time. I was thinking like fake Instagram accounts. Oh, yeah. Oh, she'd probably follow all his friends and like, you know, talk to them. Totally. Human Swiss Army Knife fails at retiring over and over again. Question is, which of the ten movies? I'm going to say Logan. Yeah, well, I kind of wrote... Yeah, they're all. All of them. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The entire continued series. So, a fun fact that I find really interesting is that you held the Guinness World Record for the longest career as a live-action Marvel superhero. Until Wesley Snipes joined Blade as Deadpool in Wolverine. So, do you regret allowing him to be in that film? 100%. If I had known, I would have banned him. I would have written him out. I would have said, if he's... Yeah. If he's going to take my title, he cannot be in my movie. He can take your title. I'm literally de-friending him now. Wesley Snipes, do you need to take that title back? Well, now it's just a competition of who's going to live longer. It's a battle. The battle's on. Actually, I'd put my money on Wesley. With some of the roles you take on, it's getting... You put your body through a lot. That's true. I feel like the years are showing. I met Wesley Snipes when I was seven years old because he did Wildcats with my mom. Wow. Yeah. He was so cool. Do you remember it? Oh, yeah. Because it was all those guys. They were so lively and fun. But, you know, Wesley was a musical theater guy. Yeah. So, that's... Yeah. We love more theater kids. This is why they say never meet your heroes. Almost fans. Good job. So, this was considered your breakout role in, obviously, such an incredible film. Was there any advice you got on set, either from Cameron or another actor or crew member, that stuck with you to this day? Oh. I mean... So much. I mean, that was like Cameron... Well, know your lines. Let's start with that. Because when you're working with a writer-director like Cameron Crowe, you know, every... It's like there's a cadence. There's a way... You know, every single word matters. Punctuation. Everything, yeah. So, it was really interesting for me as a young actor, you know, from of and and. Like, even the small words. And so, the discipline. That kind of discipline, he really... He taught me the importance of. And it was the first movie that I did a lot of... Like, I hadn't done a lot of movies at all, but... Steadicam. I felt like I was dancing with them. And it was the first time I realized that when you're working with steadicam operators, and you're doing these really, like, intense scenes, I really felt like we were all in this thing together. And I had a really, like, deep appreciation for great steadicam operators. The first time I did a movie in America, there was a steadicam. And I was asking me, guys, why don't you just put it on? And I put it on. And that's... Forevermore, I just bow down to those operators. I couldn't even keep it steady. So amazing. Yeah, harmony. Good job. I love that. So, again, I absolutely loved this film. Your performances, your chemistry are both brilliant. I was told I'm not supposed to say, so good. So good. Yeah, that's going to happen a lot today, I feel. I find this film really interesting because we have a lot of musical biopics. Especially recently. Yeah. Films that tell the story of an artist through their music. But this tells the story of a tribute band instead of the artist. So why do you think their story was the one to tell here? And how do you think it differs? The fact that they were real people. The fact this is a true story, which, by the way, when you watch it, if it was written as fiction, it would be thrown out immediately. It's so crazy what they went through. But they're real people. You can relate. And it's not just the rags-to-riches story. And somehow these people, with their goals and their dreams, which are not – their dreams aren't Madison Square Garden. They may be, but they're just happy to get up and perform. But then everything they go through, I think it's just inspiring. And people can relate to it. And listen, I love a great biopic of a musical star. But I love this story. And I think it's in many ways the movies that used to get made that don't get made anymore. But it's kind of the movies we need. Yeah, and I think there's discovery in it. There's the difference between, say, a biopic and Bob Dylan or Bruce Springsteen. You're sort of discovering something of somebody that you know very well. This is a completely unknown story where you actually sort of get to experience an artist like Neil Diamond as a backdrop, as the fans of Neil Diamond. You know, it's such a wonderful way to honor Neil's music and such a different way to honor his catalogue. An extremely long back-and-forth over some carbs. Well, Italian would be – that could be nine. It could be Les Mis. Yeah, well done! Me and Javert, like a back-and-forth about stealing a loaf of bread. A loaf of bread. That was random. I just made him sing that. Les Mis was a hard one to do. There's a lot to go there. With all these, I'm supposed to be asking you some professional questions about follow-ups. But I can't not tell you my mom's obsession with Aaron Tveit. She has the world's biggest crush on him. I don't blame you. We watch YouTube videos of his performances all the time. She saw him in Moulin Rouge. I went to New York to see it with her. So I have to know, for her sake, what's a fun little story or something you learned about Aaron that I can tell her that she might love? Well, right now he's in Chess, which I can't wait to see. She's seen that as well? She's right. What is he in? Chess. They've got the revival of that, which I hear is amazing. Aaron is just the most solid, awesome guy. He sings like you can't believe. He's an incredible actor. He was in the workshop. Okay, he was in the workshop for Greater Showman. If you watch Keala Settle singing This Is Me at that rehearsal footage, or me singing From Now On, the camera pans and you see Cynthia Erivo playing the Zendaya part. So there you go. There's a little fun fact for your mom. That's a fun fact for everyone. So that's hours more YouTube for you. What's your mom's name? Mary Ellen. You've got good taste in crush. She's a great guy. She's going to love that. They didn't stop believing even when things got toxic and they needed somebody to love. Song sung by? No. No, they needed somebody to believe in. Say it one more time. They didn't stop believing even when things got toxic and they needed somebody to love. And they needed somebody to love? Is it? They didn't stop believing. Keep going on that one. Don't stop believing. The show did that. It was Rock of Ages. A TV show? Yeah. That covered a lot of songs. Oh, Glee. Oh my god. I was like, whoa. If Glee were to come back today, what song would need to be in it? Oh. So many songs. I mean, you'd have to do... You'd have to do... I mean, they would do Cha Cha Parada. 100%. They would do definitely... K-pop. Oh, K-pop. Golden. They would do Golden. It would be a whole K-pop episode. A whole K-pop episode. Yeah. They would definitely do Role Model. They would have done Sally. 100%. They would have definitely done that. And we'd reprise you as Sally. Uh-huh. That's a Bruno Mars made cheering they would have done. Yes.
