From Almost Famous to Something Borrowed, the top 10 Kate Hudson movies so far
Twenty years after her breakthrough performance in Almost Famous, Kate Hudson remains one of the most adored and influential actresses of our time. She’s conquered the big screen, launched a successful women’s sportswear company, dabbled in her own vodka label, and even smashed a memorable guest spot on Glee. There’s nothing she can’t do on-screen or off.
Perhaps some people know Kate Hudson best as the daughter of legendary actress Goldie Hawn, but with a stunning breakout performance in Almost Famous and a string of well-loved romantic comedies in the 2000s, Hudson more than made a name for herself in Hollywood.
Although in recent years she’s taken a step back from movies, she’s preparing for a return in Sia’s upcoming directorial debut. It’s never too soon to look back on her best performances.
She’s proven all is fair in love and war with Matthew McConaughey (twice!), feuded with Anne Hathaway in wedding dresses, and survived a horrifying haunting in a cursed Southern house. She’s played multiple characters, the unlikeable character you hate to love, and the endearingly relatable rom-com lead.
Whether you’ve been a fan since Hudson earned her Academy Award for playing Penny Lane or you never missed out on a rom-com moment, it’s impossible to not be captivated by Kate Hudson’s on-screen presence.
