Prior to the McConaissance, the actor starred in a string of rom-coms, including Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, Fool’s Gold, and, of course, Failure to Launch.
McConaughey then made the transition to more dramatic fare, including The Lincoln Lawyer, Magic Mike and Mud before his Oscar-winning turn in The Dallas Buyer’s Club in 2013. The next year, he’d add an Emmy nomination to his resume for HBO’s True Detective. His 2020 memoir Greenlights became a New York Times bestseller, debuting at number one, and the 51-year-old also serves as a professor of practice at the University of Texas’ Moody College of Communication.
He and Camila Alves, wed since 2012, have three children: Sons Levi, 12, and Livingston, 8, and daughter Vida, 11.
