This is Fresh Air, I'm Tanya Mosley, and today my guest is Kate Hudson. She's up for an Oscar for her role as Claire in the film Song Sung Blue, starring opposite Hugh Jackman as one half of Lightning and Thunder, a Neil Diamond tribute band.

Oh, it's such a it's such a joyous song. Yeah, yeah. Kate Hudson landed the role of Claire Sardina after Hugh Jackman first saw her sing on CBS Sunday morning. He had already committed to the movie, and he was so taken by her performance that he texted director Craig Brewer and said, I think I just found your Claire.
