It meant that they were drawn together by the intangible bonds of biology, that their genetic makeup meant that they were always destined to be existentially entwined. Of all the working actors in the world, McConaughey and Harrelson somehow managed to find each other. “And my mom is there, and she says, ‘Woody, I knew your dad.’ Everyone was aware of the ellipses that my mom left after ‘knew.’ It was a loaded K-N-E-W.”Īpparently Harrelson and McConaughey then did some sums and realised that it could have been feasible that McConaughey’s mother (who was in the midst of a divorce) could have feasibly had sex with Harrelson’s father (who was a contract killer who claims to have murdered JFK) because they were both around Texas at the same time.Īgain, as unlikely as this sounds, this could be extremely sweet if true. “In Greece a few years ago, we’re sitting around talking about how close we are and our families,” McConaughey continued. Their hairlines have receded in similar directions. They both have, or have had, a fondness for marijuana.
They were both born in Texas in the 1960s.
Which makes some amount of sense, doesn’t it? They are both professional actors.
