Kate Hudson has responded to criticism from the real-life son of the Sardinas, the Milwaukee couple whom Hudson and Hugh Jackman play in Song Sung Blue. Michael Sardina Jr. told the Daily Mail that the biopic is “all lies” and that his character was “purposely cut out of the film.” Hudson co-starred in the 2025 film, directed by Craig Brewer, as Claire Sardina, stepmother to Michael and his sister Angelina. Claire married their father, Mike Sardina, in 1994. Mike Jr. said that his father would be “rolling in his grave right now.” He also called Hudson and Jackman “monsters,” adding that they didn’t mention his “existence at all,” despite his close relationship with his father, whom Jackman portrayed. In an interview with the Hollywood Reporter, Hudson responded to Mike Jr.’s comments, saying, “Honestly, I don’t even know—out of respect for our filmmakers, I’m not the right person to speak to it.” The actress, 46, added that she got to know the real-life Claire, saying that she is “such a wonderful woman, and she’s so happy with the movie.”
