Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson are famous actors who have been in the spotlight for many years. They’ve been close friends and even starred together in the popular show “True Detective” in 2014, where their on-screen chemistry felt like a brotherly bond.
It turns out, their connection might be deeper than just friendship. Could their realistic performances have been influenced by a truth they didn’t know at the time?
According to McConaughey, he and Woody Harrelson might actually be real brothers. Not just close friends or like brothers, but actual brothers by blood.
According to Metro, McConaughey says he and Harrelson might be siblings. His mom revealed something that makes this hard to ignore.
McConaughey, who is 53 and starred in “Dallas Buyers Club,” said his mom hinted she knew Harrelson’s father well, suggesting they might have had a close relationship in the past.
McConaughey shared on Kelly Ripa’s Let’s Talk Off Camera podcast that his mom dropped this surprising news while his and Harrelson’s families were on vacation in Greece together.
The Interstellar actor shared that one day they were talking about how people often confuse him and Harrelson in photos.
“A few years ago in Greece, we were sitting around talking about how close we are and our families,” McConaughey said.
“My mom was there and she said, ‘Woody, I knew your dad.’ Everyone noticed the pause after ‘knew.’ It was a loaded K-N-E-W.”
After hearing this, McConaughey decided to investigate his family history. He found out that while his parents were going through their second divorce, Harrelson’s father was on furlough.

Harrelson, who is 63, suggested they get DNA tests, but McConaughey isn’t sure.
McConaughey said, “It’s easier for Woody to say, ‘Let’s do DNA tests,’ because he doesn’t have much to lose. For me, it’s harder because it might mean that my dad isn’t really my dad after believing that for 53 years. I have more at stake.”
Harrelson’s father was sentenced to 15 years in prison in 1973 for murdering a grain dealer, which Harrelson learned about from a radio broadcast.
The Hunger Games star told The Guardian: “I was waiting in the car for someone to pick me up from school. I was listening to the radio, and they were talking about a trial involving someone named Charles V Harrelson for murder. I thought, ‘There can’t be another Charles V Harrelson. That’s my dad!’”
Baby who weighed 16 pounds in 1983 is now an adult and still known for his huge size
When twenty-four-year-old Patricia Clarke found out she was carrying her second child, in 1983, an amazing adventure started. Her family was notorious for producing enormous babies, so she had a sneaking suspicion that her child would be a little larger than average. However, she had no idea how large her child would end up being.
Kevin Robert Clark is the baby boy Patricia gave birth to. At birth, he was unusually large—more than sixteen pounds! This makes him possibly the largest infant in New Jersey as well as the largest baby ever born at Community Memorial Hospital. Kevin was thankfully healthy even though he was too big for a typical crib and newborn clothes.
People were initially drawn to Kevin because of his size. He even made appearances on TV programs like “Saturday Night Live” and “Good Morning America,” and he was widely discussed across the nation.
But Kevin’s development didn’t end there. He continued to develop, reaching a height of 5 feet 7 inches by the time he was 12 years old. He stood six feet five inches tall in junior high. Kevin found comedy in the fact that others were now enquiring about his height. “I like to joke that I’m 5-foot-21,” he said. I inquire about miniature golf when someone asks if I play basketball.
Kevin is 39 years old and has a height of 6 feet 9 inches. He was in the military before and resides with his 6-foot-6 wife and Great Dane. He claims to have accepted his unusual size and grown accustomed to being larger than nearly everyone else.
Kevin’s life has been an adventure in navigating attention and people’s curiosity, but he appears to be doing well. He’s a fantastic example of living a confident life and accepting what makes you unique. We are very inspired by Kevin’s tale and hope that all of his future pursuits turn out well!
