In the upcoming Netflix sports comedy series titled “Running Point,” Kate Hudson is slated to take the lead role. Known for her romantic comedies, she will be playing Isla Gordon, a carefree partygoer who unexpectedly finds herself as the President of her family’s professional basketball team.
Currently, she needs to establish her trustworthiness amid doubts that could lead to amusing interactions. Interestingly enough, Hudson has a surprising link to the sport herself due to her close relationship with ex-NBA player Baron Davis.
The pair had been childhood companions, and the actress known for Bride Wars frequently found herself in close proximity to sports activities. Furthermore, Hudson openly acknowledged that basketball holds a special place among her favorite sports, and being part of the team has merely intensified this affection.
In 2012, Davis, a two-time NBA All-Star who represented teams such as the Golden State Warriors and New York Knicks, chose to hang up his jersey. Nowadays, he can be found in a studio role, providing analysis for the NBA on TNT, according to Mirror.
Apart from growing up as friends, Hudson and Davis have also joined forces for a promotional project. This dynamic duo teamed up with their friend, Darren Criss (who is known for his role in Glee), to endorse their individual brands: Cann’s Cranberry, Sage Cannabis Tonic, and King St. vodka.
As a lifestyle guru, I’d like to share a fascinating tidbit about the actress from “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days.” You might not know this, but she has a personal link to Jeanie Buss – the inspiring owner of the Los Angeles Lakers who is the brain behind Running Point. Amazingly, she’s known Buss since her teenage years, which gave her an extraordinary bond with her on-screen character.
Jeanie’s journey through the male-dominated professional basketball scene, and her successful career within it, is truly inspirational,” Hudson remarked. He praised Buss for allowing them to create a humorous portrayal of her unique, empowering environment. She expressed her appreciation towards Buss in return.
Hudson’s involvement in the sport demonstrates her suitability for portraying Isla Gordon on-screen. Alongside Hudson, the cast boasts talents such as Brenda Song, Chet Hanks, Max Greenfield, Justin Theroux, and several other notable figures.
