Matthew McConaughey Biography

Matthew McConaughey, a Texas native, has become an influential figure in Hollywood as one of the industry's leading actors. A chance meeting in Austin with casting director and producer Don Phillips led him to director Richard Linklater, who launched the actor’s career in the cult classic "Dazed and Confused." McConaughey's prolific career includes more than 40 feature films, with collective gross earnings exceeding $1 billion. His notable roles in "Dallas Buyers Club," "Interstellar," "True Detective," and "The Gentlemen" underscore his exceptional acting versatility. His portrayal of Ron Woodruff in "Dallas Buyers Club" earned him an Academy Award. McConaughey also demonstrated his vocal talent in animated films such as "Kubo and the Two Strings," "Sing," and "Sing 2."

McConaughey's influence extends beyond the silver screen. As a philanthropist, he founded the just keep livin Foundation, which promotes active and healthy lifestyles among teenagers. His efforts with the foundation earned him the Creative Conscience award from unite4:humanity in 2016. Additionally, he became a professor of practice at the University of Texas at Austin in 2019, after serving as a visiting instructor since 2015. Also, McConaughey has shown interest in societal issues, advocating for "commonsense gun laws" in a White House press briefing in 2022. In 2024, he addressed the National Governors Association meeting, expressing continued interest in political office.

McConaughey's talent extends to literature. His memoir, "Greenlights," released in 2020, quickly became a #1 New York Times bestseller, with over 3 million copies sold worldwide. In September 2023, he debuted his children's book "Just Because," which also reached #1 on the New York Times bestseller list. In the same year, Matthew and his wife Camila launched their own tequila brand, Pantalones. This marked their first joint venture. In addition to his acting, authorship, and professorship, McConaughey became a minority owner of Austin FC, a Major League Soccer team, in 2019. McConaughey continues to reside in Austin, Texas with his wife Camila and their three children.
