Kate Hudson was more than happy to team up with Matthew McConaughey again, she just wanted to wait for the right time. The two had a great time together on How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, but were reluctant to just do another movie for the sake of doing it. The 28-year-old actress says, “We had got plenty of opportunities to do it before. The things that came were like “eh” and then this came and the relationship felt right because it felt like an extension of How To Lose A Guy but it was completely different. We had a blast.”
The character seemed like fun to her because the back and forth ribbing is in their nature. She laughs, "For me, I was so excited to play the exacerbated, tough, ex of his. For instance, in How to Lose a Guy, the reason that worked was because we loved being exasperated by each other. That’s kind of how I felt about this except it was so different. The story is so different. Yet somehow the connection or the similarity of whatever it is that we do, was there. When we finally got it on its feet it just came really easy."
Of course it didn’t hurt that they got a tropical vacation out of the deal. She says, “We followed summer for a year. I was really tan at the end of it all, but I went right back to New York, where I live for the other half of the year and it’s cold and I want to cover my body.” The only downside was the cold water. “We were in the water and we were like ‘Brrrr’ and it was totally insane. We still had water going, we had to kiss, I was wiping snot off his face."
