In recent developments, Kate Hudson has expressed her desire to explore diverse roles in her acting career, moving beyond the romantic comedies that have defined much of her work. During the Santa Barbara International Film Festival, she stated, "I really want to be doing something different. And I think when you become really famous doing that genre, it’s hard for certain filmmakers to see you in anything other than what we’re watching." Hudson, who is known for her performances in films like *How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days* and *Bride Wars*, emphasized the challenges of being typecast, saying, "These sort of things that like, ‘Well, transforming isn’t what she does’ when, in fact, it’s what I love to do." This desire for transformation comes as she has recently been nominated for an Oscar for her role in *Song Sung Blue*.
