Reflections on 'Something Borrowed': Kate Hudson and Ginnifer Goodwin Discuss the Possibility of a Sequel
Kate Hudson and Ginnifer Goodwin recently discussed the possibility of a sequel to their 2011 romantic comedy "Something Borrowed" on the "Sibling Revelry" podcast. The actresses reflected on the fan interest in a sequel, but both agreed that they may have aged out of reprising their original roles as Darcy and Rachel. The movie was based on Emily Griffin's novel of the same name, with a potential sequel, "Something Blue," in the works in 2016. However, Goodwin expressed that she wouldn't be interested in revisiting the story at this point in her life, as they have both matured since the original film.
Goodwin mentioned that she often gets asked about the iconic dance scene from the movie, which has become a favorite among her sons' friends at school. Despite the dramatic premise of the film, where Rachel sleeps with her best friend Darcy's fiancé, the cast had a great rapport behind the scenes. Goodwin and Hudson bonded instantly and developed a strong friendship, with Goodwin praising Hudson's professionalism and their shared values. The chemistry between the two actresses was natural and didn't require any effort to portray on screen.
While fans may be disappointed that a sequel to "Something Borrowed" seems unlikely, the actresses' candid discussion on the podcast shed light on their perspectives on revisiting the beloved rom-com. The nostalgia surrounding the film and its memorable moments, like the dance scene, continue to resonate with audiences. As Goodwin and Hudson have moved on to other projects and personal milestones, the possibility of a sequel remains uncertain.
