More than two decades after their unforgettable cat-and-mouse romance became a rom-com favorite, Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey could be heading back to the world of How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. A sequel to the 2003 classic is reportedly in early development at Paramount, potentially bringing the beloved pairing back together. The prospect of their return is especially exciting for fans who still remember the chemistry between Andie Anderson and Benjamin Barry.

But before their possible reunion, there is already plenty of buzz surrounding Hudson's role in getting the sequel off the ground.

According to Variety, Kate Hudson is attached to produce the project through her Shiny Penny banner alongside producer Stacey Sher. The studio and filmmakers reportedly intend to have Hudson and Matthew McConaughey reprise their roles, although the sequel is still searching for a screenwriter and remains in the early stages of development.

The original How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days followed magazine columnist Andie Anderson as per Variety, played by Hudson, and advertising executive Benjamin Barry, played by McConaughey, as their competing schemes unexpectedly turned into genuine romance. The film grossed nearly $180 million worldwide and has since become a beloved rom-com classic.

With Hudson potentially returning to the franchise, fans may also be curious about how successful the actress has become away from the screen.

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Kate Hudson has an estimated net worth of $80 million as of early 2026. While acting provided the foundation for her fortune, her entrepreneurial ventures have played a significant role in expanding it. In particular, her involvement with Fabletics has helped turn her celebrity profile into a successful long-term business empire.

Kate Hudson co-founded subscription fashion brand Fabletics, which reached a reported valuation of $250 million in 2017 and surpassed $500 million in annual revenue by 2020. She has also invested in Los Angeles real estate, purchasing a Pacific Palisades residence for $5.4 million in the 2000s and the neighboring property for another $5.3 million in 2011.

For now, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days 2 has no confirmed writer, additional cast, or release date. However, Hudson's involvement and the reported intention to bring McConaughey back could make the sequel one of the most anticipated rom-com revivals. The project is still in its early stages, so fans may have to wait before more details about the story and cast emerge. If Hudson and McConaughey officially reunite, the sequel could bring a major dose of early-2000s nostalgia back to the big screen.
