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!’”
If you see this beautiful purple thing washed ashore on the sand this summer, DO NOT touch it
For those fortunate enough to have some disposable income earmarked for a summer getaway (yes, vacations are becoming quite the luxury these days), here’s a crucial heads-up: keep your eyes peeled!
There exists a stunning purple specimen that occasionally washes ashore on beaches, and let me tell you, it’s not something you want to handle or, for that matter, taste!
Believe it or not, there have been instances where influencers have deemed it fit to sample these venomous “adorable” entities.
As alluring and exotic as they may seem, Portuguese man-of-war pose a significant threat to human well-being.
These sea dwellers resemble captivating blue or purple-hued bubbles bobbing on the water’s surface, adorned with lengthy, dark purple tentacles trailing beneath them.
However, it’s precisely these tentacles that make encounters with Portuguese man-of-war perilous, as they’re brimming with venom and proficient at administering a painful sting.
Whether encountered in the water or on the shoreline, these creatures should be steered clear of, as they retain their sting-inducing capabilities even days after being washed ashore, regardless of their apparent state of decay.
A brush with these deceptively charming organisms can lead to a range of ailments, including cardiac distress, fever, shock, painful inflammation, allergic reactions resulting in breathing difficulties, paralysis, and in rare instances, death.
In the unfortunate event of a sting, forget about the age-old myth of urinating on the affected area! Instead, seek immediate professional medical attention.
Urinating can actually exacerbate the situation. Opt instead for a cold compress to alleviate swelling and discomfort.
