Did Kate Hudson replace Jennifer Garner?


Or is Jennifer still in the movie?

reply

Nope, she's still in it, she's even producing it. Her fellow cast include Hugh Jackman, Olivia Wilde, Ty Burrell and Alicia Silverstone. Kate Hudson and Jim Carrey both turned it down.

Don't leave this girl alone with any handsome deaf mutes, Marty, that's my advice to you

Jennifer in, Kate out. Variety:
