Wilder Hudson
Wilder Hudson is an emerging American actor who recently made his feature film debut in the 2025 Netflix Christmas romantic comedy, 'A Merry Little Ex-Mas'. Born on August 23, 2007, he is the eldest son of actor Oliver Hudson and actress Erinn Bartlett, making him part of the famous Hawn-Hudson family, with his grandparents being Goldie Hawn and Bill Hudson. In his debut film, he co-stars alongside his father, Oliver Hudson, playing the role of Gabriel, the son of the recently divorced main couple, Kate (Alicia Silverstone) and Everett (Oliver Hudson). Prior to this role, the 18-year-old had no major acting credits, having secured the part after taking acting classes outside of school. His father, Oliver Hudson, spoke publicly about the emotional experience of watching his son's first performance, particularly during an emotional monologue in the film, expressing immense pride in Wilder's natural talent and courage in stepping into the acting world. His entry into the industry has drawn attention to the concept of "nepo babies," which his father acknowledged while stressing that Wilder still had to successfully audition and prove himself to land the role.
