The Audition My Mom Made Me Do That Put Me Next to Hugh Jackman | Hudson Hensley Interview

Hudson Hensley, the young actor who stars alongside Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson in Song Sung Blue, reveals how he nearly quit acting right before the audition that changed his life and recounts his speechless encounter with Samuel L. Jackson. He walks through 5 years of rejection starting with a Nashville manager, the 3-year stretch without a single callback, and the coaching breakthrough that taught him to stop reciting lines and start listening. He also opens up about using the real Dana’s personal playlist to get into character and the Song Sung Blue premiere afterparty record that symbolizes everything he fought for.
