Kate Hudson on My Best Friend's Girl

Kate Hudson is the "Girl" in My Best Friend's Girl. Dustin (Jason Biggs) hires Tank (Dane Cook) to treat her like such a jerk that she falls for the nice guy. It only makes Alexis (Hudson) realize that she needs to date more. So now Dustin's still "just friends" and Tank's falling for his target for real. It's definitely not the happy, fluffy rom-com Kate Hudson usually does.

"I thought it was more actually like the women I know actually are, in terms of comedy and obviously movies about sex and relationships and such," said Hudson. "The ones that I’ve been involved with have been quite straight and narrow and this was definitely not that. I felt it was more close to my girlfriends and the things I’ve experienced and seen with women."

That means if a real woman is ever in a love triangle, she faces it head on. "I think when you apply yourself to the situation, it’s like if I was Dane, what would I’d do? I’d just be honest. I’d just go tell the person, 'Heck, I think I kind of like him. What do you think?' Just be up front about it. The only thing is that you find yourself in that situation where the person is like, 'I'm kind of uncomfortable with that,' you're like, 'That’s kind of too bad. I’m not calling you because I’m asking your opinion. Just think about it.'"

Some of Tank's bad dates include taking Alexis to a strip club. "I have had a couple pretty bad dates. One date I just left before we got any food or ordered food because the guy was so deeply boring. I just thought I’d just save all of us from this and leave. I think he was in banking. I’m not kidding. It was years ago."

My Best Friend's Girl took Hudson to Cook's hometown of Boston, where she felt right at home. "You mean the Patriots and the Red Sox? Loved it. I fell in love with it. I actually got to spend most my year there because I did another film in Boston. Got to know the Kraft family through Dane and they were such wonderful people. They brought me and invited me to some Patriots games. I was really fun to be East Coast at that time because it was late summer into fall. It was really, really nice. Great food. Good yummy pizzeria routine."

My Best Friend's Girl opens to theaters on September 19th.
