Kate Hudson’s next movie will be “Bachelor No. 2″ for Lionsgate, starring opposite Dane Cook.

Director Howard Deutch is set to begin lensing in August. Pic will be shot in Boston.

Management 360 and Terra Firma are producing. Cook’s Superfinger Entertainment also is producing.

From a script by Jordan B. Cahan, storyline revolves around a man who is hired by men who have been dumped to take their ex-girlfriends out on nightmare dates, thereby convincing the women to return to their boyfriends. But trouble arises when Cook’s character is hired to take out the ex-girlfriend of his best pal.

Producers are Guymon Casady, Doug Johnson, Adam Herz, Greg Lessans, Josh Shader, Barry Katz and Brian Volk-Weiss.

Hudson (“You, Me & Dupree,” “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days” ) will next be seen in theaters opposite Matthew McConaughey in romantic action-adventure “Fool’s Gold.” Warners releases the film Feb. 8.

“Bachelor” marks Cook’s third Lionsgate pic after “Employee of the Month” and “Good Luck Chuck,” which bows in September.
