Based on Sophie Kinsella's novel of the same name, the story is about a junior marketing executive (Kate Hudson) who spills her guts to a handsome airplane passenger during a turbulent business flight. Later she learns that the person she was telling all of her deepest secrets to is the man running her company.

Starring: Kate Hudson as Emma




I'm a fan of her Shopaholic Series and recently read this book but then I can't imagine Kate Hudson as Emma though. So far, she's the only confirmed cast coz she's also producing this one. I was hoping that these other actresses would play Emma though

brittany murphy


amanda seyfried


emily blunt


and i was thinking of matthew mcconaughey as jack harper or dermot mulroney




what do you guys think?

ooooh when is the movie due to come out.
it's been a few years since i've read the book, so i can't really remember the character of emma. altho she's probably just a lot like all of the characters in all of sophie kinsella's books.
i should re-read this to refresh my memory cos i remember enjoying this book.
i don't mind kate hudson as the lead, she's always good with this rom com roles.

i just hope it'll turn out better than how the shopaholics movie came out. i was disappointed with the shopaholics movie since it was pretty different from the books.

I loved this book! And I can actually see Kate Hudson being Emma, and just like you, Matthew McConaughey as Jack! I just love those two together, like in How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days and Fool's Gold. I hope the movie doesn't disappoint <3

I loved the book, definitely one of my favorites from Sophie Kinsella biggrin.gif
I can't picture Kate Hudson as Emma though, Emily Blunt on the other hand fits right into the picture.
Either way I'm excited, I can't wait to see it!

I love that movie too especially when they discovered that they're both using each other to win some bet...lolz! I just wish it remains truthful to the book unlike confessions....actually I liked Isla Fisher but the story in the book was more interesting than what was seen in the movie

I hope even if kate hudson is the lead emily blunt will still be in it as Jemima--Gosh! That character was hilarious hahahaha! about the revenge stuff...

I saw the title of this thread and I was like "YES gotta tell my friends!"


Then I saw Kate Hudson and I'm like "NO". I mean I have nothing against her but NOT MY EMMA!

OOOHHHH I actually liked Can You Keep A Secret much more than the Shopaholic series. I'm so excited for this!!!!! I can actually picture a younger Kate Hudson as Emma.. but I hope she loses more weight for the role. I always pictured a blonde so that's cool, but I think Kate Hudson will have keep her trademark cheeriness down a little.





And yes, that's a good choice. Exactly who I pictured, except a little more rugged and unkempt.. maybe more unshaved? kk

I really hope they don't mess up Jack Harper like they did for Luke in the the Shopaholic movie..

actually I thought that if they hadn't picked hugh dancy for shopaholic he would have made a better jack harper...but it's done so someone else should play jack harper...about kate hudson, how does she exactly look right now? did she gain weight? I thought she was too thin....emma was supposed to be curvy

years ago after i first read the book there were rumors about Kate Hudson being Emma. It was posted on imdb, but then years passed and it became old news. I hope this time they are really going to make a movie out of this book. It's going to be fun smile.gif *i thought Renee Zellweger fits Emma's wackyness

OMG! I really love the book and definitely thrilled to watch the movie. I just hope they don't mess anything from the book. I prefer someone who is curvy to portray Emma!

Actually I love Can You Keep A Secret more than Shopaholic series.

So, there will be a movie for the story? I love the book! Isn't Kate is a bit thin while Emma is kinda curvy?

Yea Emma is supposed to be "curvy" for her height, but I think Kate Hudson was too big in that wedding movie she did recently. I pictured Emma to be more fresh and softer featured, but Kate didn't really look right. I prefer a thin Kate Hudson. And I think Emma should be a little more serious than how Kate usually portrays her comic roles. She's not as wacky as Becky lol~
