“Song Sung Blue” Premise

The duo plays a married couple who start a Neil Diamond tribute band, and their on-screen chemistry looks like a major highlight. Expect laughs, heartfelt moments, and of course, classic Diamond tracks woven into the story.

The movie is loosely based on the 2008 documentary “Song Sung Blue”, which followed a real-life couple’s musical journey. That emotional core gives the film added depth and relatability, blending fiction with real-life inspiration.

Directed by Craig Brewer (“Hustle & Flow” , “Dolemite Is My Name”), the film has been a passion project for Hudson. She’s shared how much fun she had filming and even referred to Jackman as her “lovely work husband” in a recent Instagram post.

Kate Hudson’s Musical Debut

This film comes on the heels of Hudson’s own musical debut. Her album “Glorious” includes the track “Right on Time,” a touching tribute to her mom’s pre-fame struggles—showing off Hudson’s growing artistry beyond the screen.

Hudson often credits her mom Goldie Hawn and stepdad Kurt Russell for teaching her the value of love, hard work, and family. Their long-standing relationship continues to inspire her both personally and professionally.

Releasing on December 25, “Song Sung Blue” is shaping up to be the perfect holiday movie. It’s got music, nostalgia, a top-tier cast, and a story that pulls at the heartstrings—all the ingredients for a Christmas Day favorite. Whether you’re in it for the Neil Diamond singalongs, the rom-com charm, or just a little holiday magic, this is one film you won’t want to miss.
