The 46-year-old actor vowed to stop “compromising” to please other people after watching McCartney in action.
“[It made me think] about those who compromise and those who don’t.
“I thought about being a woman in the industry and all the compromising you do for other people. About doing comedies and being successful in them but still feeling like you’re constantly having to compromise.”
The Bride Wars star is best known for her work in romantic comedies and while they will always be her “favourite” genre, she’s concerned that they have been “dumbed down” in recent years.
She said: “You know what? They’re my favourite. I love them and I will never stop making them. I just think they need to be better.
“When you’re trying to make a great one, you’re fighting a lot of algorithms.
“I think they’ve dumbed down the romcom. The ones I loved were written and directed by the best talent. Nora Ephron, Jim [James L] Brooks: those are the great ones that last forever. They’re like comfort blankets.”
Meanwhile, Hudson insisted she doesn’t pay any attention to what is written about her after following advice from her stepfather, Kurt Russell.
