Kate Winslet Reflects on The Holiday Memories and Nickname from Jack Black


Kate Winslet recently reminisced about her time on the set of The Holiday, sharing a sweet memory of the nickname "K Dub" that her co-star Jack Black gave her during filming. As reported by People magazine, Winslet received a video message from Black during an advanced screening of her new film Lee on September 23 in New York City. In the message, Black playfully asked if The Holiday 2 would ever happen, expressing how much he missed and loved her.

Speaking with Josh Horowitz at the screening, Winslet shared that the nickname "K Dub" has stuck, and now many people on set call her by that name. She joked that when she was on the set of Lee with co-star Kate, people had to call her by her full name to avoid confusion.

Jude Law, another star from The Holiday, also weighed in on the possibility of a sequel. In an interview with E! News, he mentioned that fans should ask director Nancy Meyers if a second film is in the works, as he’d love to see it happen.

During a February appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Winslet revealed that more people recognize her for her role in The Holiday than for her iconic performance in Titanic, especially during the holiday season. She shared heartwarming stories of mothers and daughters telling her how much the movie means to them as part of their Christmas traditions.

Despite the ongoing fan interest in a sequel, Winslet confirmed to People that she hasn’t been involved in any discussions about it, making the chances of The Holiday 2 uncertain.

Released in 2006, The Holiday was a beloved romantic comedy that starred Winslet, Jack Black, Jude Law, Cameron Diaz, and several others. It remains a cherished holiday favorite for many families.
