HOW TO LOSE A GUY IN 10 DAYS Sequel in the Works With Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey in Talks to Return
A sequel to the 2003 romantic comedy How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days is in the works at Paramount with stars Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey in talks to return.
Hudson is producing alongside Stacey Sher, and the intention is for Hudson and McConaughey to star, though it’s very early days and there are no cast attachments as yet. There’s no logline yet for the sequel, nor a writer aboard the project, but updates are expected to start rolling in soon.
One of the most revisited studio rom-coms of the 2000s, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days watches as magazine writer Andie Anderson (Hudson) and ad executive Benjamin Barry (McConaughey) enter a relationship, each with a secret agenda: she wants to drive him away for a story, while he bets he can make her fall in love with him in 10 days. Their schemes are foiled when real feelings enter the picture.
Coming off her second Oscar nomination for the Focus Features drama Song Sung Blue, Hudson can currently be seen starring in Netflix’s hit comedy Running Point, heading into its third season.
Academy Award winner McConaughey last starred in the Apple TV drama feature The Lost Bus, and next month he is returning to the streamer to star in the comedy series Brothers with Woody Harrelson.
