Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey are open to a 'How to Lose a Guy' sequel

How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days was released over 20 years ago, and its male and female leads aren’t opposed to reuniting for a second movie. Both Hudson and McConaughey have discussed returning to their roles as Andie and Ben.

Hudson said, "I think they’re always thinking about that,” when asked about a potential sequel in a recent Watch What Happens Live interview with Andy Cohen. The script is a key factor and that’s what would sway Hudson’s decision.

Besides starring in How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days , Hudson and McConaughey teamed up again in 2008 for Fool’s Gold. While shooting both of these movies, the two spent a total of 10 months together.
