Kate Hudson hints at future project with mom Goldie Hawn: ‘I think about it all the time’

Kate Hudson has opened up a future on-screen collaboration with her mom, Goldie Hawn. During an interview on LIVE with Kelly & Mark, the actress was questioned over whether she would ever want to work on a project with her mother.

“We all want to see you and your mom, Goldie Hawn, together on-screen,” said Kelly Ripa. “Will that happen in my lifetime?”

“I would love it too,” replied Kate. “Every time I see Kurt Russell and Wyatt Russell together I’m like, ‘that is just not fair.’ Why do you guys get to do this?”

She continued: “I would love to work with my mom. It would just have to be so right. We would both want it to be very meaningful. Whatever that is or whenever that time comes, I hope so.”

“Have you ever considered writing a project?” asked Kelly, to which Kate responded, “Yes. I have thought about it.”

“My mom hasn’t worked in a long time. She does a lot with kids and she’s really happy in her life. But I think about it all the time,” she added.

Family footsteps

Goldie was married to Bill Hudson from 1976 to 1982, during which they welcomed two children, daughter Kate and son Oliver Hudson. The siblings had a complicated relationship with Bill, who Goldie previously described as an “absentee father.” Kate and Oliver were primarily raised by Goldie and her partner of over 40 years, Kurt, whom they refer to as their “Pa.” Goldie and Kurt welcomed their son, Wyatt, in 1986. Kurt and Wyatt star alongside each other in Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season Two.

Kate went on to follow in her parents’ footsteps and pursued a career in performance. However, Goldie previously admitted that she blocked Kate from entering the movie business during her high school years because she wanted her to have a “normal life”. “I didn’t call an agent and ask them to be represented. I never did that,” Goldie told People.

The now 47-year-old credited her mom for instilling in her a strong sense of drive and independence in the acting industry. “Thank God I had a mom who said, ‘Make your own way,'” she told Variety. “When you become successful in the arts – and what I mean by ‘successful’ is when you’re making other people a lot of money – people really like to put you in a box. But nobody becomes an artist to be put in a cage.”

She continued: “As you get older, you realize you’re the only one who makes the decision not to allow yourself to be in that cage. It means having to make fearless and risk-taking decisions that are really, really hard to do when you have a status quo that’s safe.”
