00:00Picture this. It's 2001.
00:02You're sneaking into a theater with your best friend, popcorn in hand,
00:06ready for that perfect summer rom-com escape.
00:09The screen lights up with a young Kate Hudson charming everyone as Penny Lane.
00:13While across town, Hugh Jackman's brooding Wolverine is stealing hearts in X-Men.
00:18Fast forward to now.
00:19Those same stars are still making us laugh, cry, and cheer.
00:23But last night, the sparks flew again.
00:26Hugh Jackman reignited his legendary feud with Ryan Reynolds.
00:30And Kate Hudson crashed the moment like it was 1999.
00:34Tonight on Splane Daily, we're diving into the hilarious moment that's got Hollywood buzzing
00:39and taking us right back to the movie magic that shaped our lives.
00:43Welcome to Splane Daily.
00:45If you're over 45, you've lived through the eras that made these three icons who they are.
00:50The gritty superhero reboots, the feel-good rom-coms that healed our hearts,
00:54the musicals that had us belting out songs in the car.
00:58And last night at the 2025 Gotham Awards, they reminded us exactly why we fell in love with them.
01:04It all went down on December 1st at the 35th Annual Gotham Awards in New York City.
01:09Hugh Jackman, looking sharp in a tailored tux, and Kate Hudson, glowing in old Hollywood glamour,
01:16took the stage to accept the Gotham musical tribute for their upcoming film,
01:20Song Sun Blue, a heartfelt musical about a real-life Neil Diamond tribute duo from the 1980s.
01:27The crowd loved every second.
01:29And of course, Hugh couldn't resist stirring the pot.
01:32Grinning, he grabbed the mic and said,
01:35This is so cool, and something to make Ryan Reynolds insanely jealous.
01:39I love it.
01:40The room erupted.
01:41Kate laughed, leaned in, and even sang a few bars of Sweet Caroline with him.
01:46It was pure, joyful chaos.
01:49The kind of moment that instantly takes you back to the movies and music we grew up with.
01:54For those of us watching from home, it wasn't just funny.
01:57It felt warm, familiar, like a piece of the old Hollywood we miss.
02:02To understand why this feud moment hit so hard, we have to rewind.
02:06Hugh and Ryan's playful rivalry has been going on for years.
02:09It started with small jabs, then grew into legendary online trolling.
02:14Hugh would post little digs during Wolverine promotions.
02:17Ryan would fire back with outrageous Deadpool memes.
02:21The internet loved every second.
02:23But the peak came when they finally teamed up in Deadpool and Wolverine,
02:28that billion-dollar blockbuster where their on-screen chemistry and off-screen banter stole every moment.
02:33For many of us, their jokes became part of our daily conversation.
02:38Hugh's Gotham line wasn't just trolling.
02:40It was a continuation of a friendship that's lasted decades.
02:43And then there's Kate Hudson, the queen of stealing scenes without even trying.
02:48She's been lighting up screens since almost famous back in 2000,
02:52when she made an entire generation fall in love with her warmth and spark.
02:57At the Gotham Awards, she didn't just stand by smiling.
03:00She joined in the moment wholeheartedly, praising Hugh, teasing the audience,
03:05and celebrating the joy of performing.
03:07She also talked about music and how deeply it shapes our lives.
03:11Hugh praised her right back, calling her one of the great stars of our business
03:15and saying she could win an Oscar for Song Sun Blue.
03:18Hearing two icons lift each other up like that feels rare and beautiful these days.
03:23And that's really what made this moment matter.
03:26In a world full of rushed headlines, arguments, and endless reboots,
03:31this was something simple.
03:33Three stars who defined our younger years reminding us that joy doesn't have an age limit.
03:37Hugh, Ryan, Kate, they're more than celebrities to us.
03:42They're bookmarks in our life story.
03:44The actors we grew up with, the voices that got us through heartbreak,
03:48the faces we trusted on big screens before streaming took over.
03:52Watching them laugh together reminds us that getting older doesn't mean fading away.
03:56It means more stories, deeper humor, and friendships that last through every chapter.
04:01As awards season heats up, moments like this feel like a gift,
04:06a little reminder that Hollywood still has heart.
04:09From Gotham spotlights to our living rooms,
04:11Hugh Jackman, Ryan Reynolds, and Kate Hudson just delivered a masterclass in joy.
04:17Their playful feud isn't ending anytime soon,
04:20and neither is the magic they bring us.
04:22Here's to more crashes, more roasts,
