Kate Hudson and Hugh Jackman recently expressed their enthusiasm for the upcoming film “Song Sung Blue” during its New York premiere. Both stars conveyed their pride in the project, highlighting the unique ability of music to connect people and evoke emotions. Hudson noted, “To make you feel the power of music, to allow music, to watch people fall in love through music, is a really difficult thing to pull off.” Jackman echoed her sentiments, remarking, “The script was so moving!”
Hudson, a mother of three, shared that her experience on set was particularly inspiring. “There are movies that inspire you to want to be an actress, and when you’re younger, you see them and think, ‘I wish I could do that.’ That’s how I felt when I was working on this film,” she said, reflecting on how the project resonated with her own aspirations in acting.
As the conversation turned toward the film’s connection to Neil Diamond, the stars humorously entertained the possibility of an impromptu sing-a-long to the classic “Sweet Caroline.” Hudson laughed, suggesting, “With this one, you never know,” while Jackman said, “I’d put some money on it.”
In “Song Sung Blue,” Hudson and Jackman star as Mike and Claire Sardina, a couple who performed as the Neil Diamond tribute band “Lightning & Thunder” during the 1980s and ‘90s. The film is set to hit theaters nationwide on December 25, promising to bring the magic of music to audiences just in time for the holiday season. The excitement surrounding the film reflects not only the engaging storyline but also the charm of its lead actors, leaving fans eager for its release.
