Goldie Hawn 'In Serious Talks' to Play Amy Schumer's Mother in Upcoming Comedy

Latest

In what might be the most exciting casting news of the young year, New York magazine editor Kyle Buchanan revealed that semi-elusive comedy icon Goldie Hawn is very very close to being cast as Amy Schumer’s mother in an upcoming “mother-daughter vacation comedy” directed by Jonathan Levine (Warm Bodies). Depending on how her Netflix movie Divanation pans out, it will be her first film role since 2002’s R-rated romp The Banger Sisters, in which she played a former groupie alongside Susan Sarandon.

And now, the conversation I imagine Hawn is currently having with her daughter, Kate Hudson:

KATE: Mom, you have to do this. It’s fucking huge. It’s fucking Amy!

GOLDIE: Sweetie you know I don’t know who anyone is these days. And don’t say fucking. It’s not even noon!

KATE: Fine but honestly mom if you don’t take this you’re a fu—you’re a freaking idiot. What else do you have to do?

GOLDIE: Kurt and I have plenty to do, thank you very much. There’s, you know, the guest house? It’s needed to be redone for years. And I’ve really wanted to take up coding.

KATE: Coding?

GOLDIE: I have to keep my mind, you know!

KATE: So the choice is…star in a guaranteed hit with Amy Fucking Schumer…or….coding?

GOLDIE: Yes. That’s the choice. Now are you coming with me to the grocery store or not? We’re out of everything.

KATE: Yes. Shotgun!

GOLDIE: There’s no one else here. Unless you’re bringing Nick.

KATE: Don’t. Don’t you even start with Nick.

GOLDIE: You don’t start with me, and I won’t start with you.
