Jeremy Allen White<\/a> would be open to starring in a romantic comedy movie \u2014 but he says the right role has not yet come his way.<\/p>\n

The actor, 34, approached the idea during hisVariety & CNN Actors on Actors interview with actor and singer Kate Hudson<\/a>, who asked him if he would consider doing a rom-com.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019d love to. I\u2019ve never done one before but they seem so fun,\u201d White<\/a> responded.<\/p>\n

After Hudson, 46, replied that making the movies are \u201charder than you think,\u201d The Bear actor explained why he has not led a love story so far.<\/p>\n

\u201cI worry about finding the right character, because I\u2019d want it to be a classic rom-com,\u201d White said. He added that he did not want a short-lived success: \u201cNot a flash in the pan, but When Harry Met Sally.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Song Sung Blue actor agreed the 1989 classic<\/a> is \u201cone of the greats.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s one of the hardest genres to get right,\u201d she continued about rom-coms. \u201cBut it\u2019s a game-changer for your life. You can\u2019t imagine how many people you help feel good.\u201d<\/p>\n

White has mentioned wanting to do a rom-com before, and said during a podcast appearance in October that he would love to co-star opposite Lady Bird actor Saoirse Ronan<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Hudson is known for starring in several iconic rom-coms herself, including How To Lose a Guy in 10 Days<\/a>, Fool\u2019s Gold, and You, Me, and Dupree. She rose to fame with her breakout role of Penny Lane in Cameron Crowe\u2019s 2000 hit Almost Famous.<\/p>\n

\u201cI got the part when I was 19,\u201d she told White during their Actors on Actors pairing. \u201cIt was a dream. I had already started writing music at 18 years old, but to have someone like Cameron be this wellspring of musical information? It blew my mind, and it blew my life open.\u201d<\/p>\n

While White hasn\u2019t found his own When Harry Met Sally yet, he spoke candidly in the interview about his latest role in Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere, which follows Bruce Springsteen as he crafted his legendary country-folk album Nebraska. <\/a><\/p>\n

The performance recently earned him a Golden Globe nomination<\/a> for best actor. Next up, White will star alongside Anora actor Mikey Madison in Aaron Sorkin\u2019s sequel to The Social Network.<\/a><\/p>\n

Hudson and White\u2019s pairing was the latest in the annual series of A-listers in conversation ahead of awards season, following duos like Dwayne Johnson and Brendan Fraser<\/a>, David Corenswet and Jonathan Bailey, <\/a>and Stellan and Alexander Skarsg\u00e5rd.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jeremy Allen White would be open to starring in a romantic comedy movie \u2014 but he says the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":184260,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[111235,156,2379,17126,409,111,139,69,17128],"class_list":{"0":"post-184259","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-actors-on-actors","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-jeremy-allen-white","11":"tag-kate-hudson","12":"tag-movies","13":"tag-new-zealand","14":"tag-newzealand","15":"tag-nz","16":"tag-song-sung-blue"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/184259","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=184259"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/184259\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/184260"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=184259"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=184259"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=184259"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
