Kate Hudson joins Zach Braff in “Wish I Was Here” indie

PanARMENIAN.Net - Kate Hudson has been cast as Zach Braff’s wife in Wish I Was Here, the indie film Braff will direct that landed funding via Kickstarter in a campaign that surpassed its $2M fundraising goal in three days, Deadline said.

Braff wrote the script with his brother Adam. It centers on Aidan Bloom (Zach Braff), a struggling actor, father and husband who at 35 is still trying to find his identity and a purpose for his life. He and his wife (Hudson) are barely getting by financially and Aidan passes his time by fantasizing about being the great futuristic Space-Knight he’d always dreamed he’d be as a little kid. Mandy Patinkin and Josh Gad have already joined the cast. Stacey Sher and Michael Shamberg are producing the pic through their Double Feature Films.

Hudson, repped by CAA and attorney Marcy Morris, was most recently seen in the specialty release The Reluctant Fundamentalist and is next up in the Larry David HBO Films movie Clear History.
