Oliver Hudson On 'Rules Of Engagement,' Kate Hudson, Mom Goldie Hawn

Oliver Hudson comes from a comedic dynasty (mom is Goldie Hawn, sister is Kate Hudson), but he's proving his own chops on the CBS hit show Rules of Engagement.

Hudson was born in Los Angeles in 1976. The son of Hawn and musician Bill Hudson, Hudson got his start in 2002 playing Eddie Doling, the lover of Joey Potter, played by Katie Holmes, in 16 episodes of Dawson's Creek. He also starred in eleven episodes of the comedy television series, My Guide to Becoming a Rockstar in 2002, where he played lead singer of his band SlipDog as Jace Darnell.

In Rules of Engagement, Hudson plays Adam Rhode, who is recently married to his wife Jennifer (Bianca Kajlich) on the show. He plays a very sensitive guy, whose extreme naivety makes him the perfect target for mockery. "My character has sort of devolved to borderline moron but it’s fun — I like it," Hudson told Uinterview exclusively. "I like the relationship between [my character's wife] Bianca and I and the rest of the guys. I’m sort of the one who gets picked on and Bianca is wearing the pants in the family. I submit to her demands, which is fun to do because it’s not much like me. I hope to God that no one thinks I’m like him."
