Kate Hudson and Hugh Jackman brought warmth, humour, and music to the red carpet at AFI Fest recently as they premiered their new film 'Song Sung Blue.' The musical drama tells the real-life story of two struggling performers who find redemption and renewed purpose by forming a Neil Diamond tribute act—a tale filled with resilience, romance, and the healing power of music.
Hudson, who stars opposite Jackman, couldn't help but express her admiration for her co-star. She described him as a generous and spirited performer who brings magic to every scene, adding that his energy makes it almost impossible not to be drawn to him both on and off the screen.
