Actor Woody Harrelson has been making headlines lately after his recent appearance on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” where he revealed that his longtime friend and co-star Matthew McConaughey might actually be his half-brother. According to CBS News, Harrelson wants to take a DNA test with McConaughey to see if they have the same biological father. Although there is no confirmation yet, Harrelson stated that there is some truth to McConaughey’s belief.
Harrelson has been promoting his new HBO limited series, “White House Plumbers,” and used the opportunity to talk about his potential familial relationship with McConaughey. In an interview with Variety, Harrelson urged McConaughey to take the DNA test and joked that if they are indeed brothers, he would charge McConaughey for all the times he has given him money over the years.
The news has spread quickly, with Fox News reporting that the two actors have already made the decision to participate in a DNA test after a family revelation. Yahoo News quotes Harrelson saying that there is some truth to the thought of them being siblings. AS USA adds that McConaughey has recently revealed his discovery of evidence which suggests that there may be a relation between the two.
While the speculation about their potential relationship continues to spark interest among fans, Justin Theroux of “The Leftovers” and “The Mosquito Coast” has expressed his desire to join in and create an “open bromance” with Harrelson and McConaughey. According to TooFab, Theroux opened up about bonding with Harrelson on the set of their limited series and how he’s hoping to become a part of their “bromantic” bond.
This recent revelation has also prompted Harrelson to speak out about McConaughey’s belief that they could be half-brothers, as reported by The Independent. Whether or not they turn out to be related, it seems that the bond between the two actors is undeniable. As reported by CNN, they have already worked together on several projects, including the hit TV series “True Detective,” and have a close friendship that has lasted for years.
As fans wait for the results of the DNA test, McConaughey and Harrelson’s potential relationship has become a hot topic in Hollywood. It seems that no matter the outcome, the two actors will continue to be close friends and successful co-stars in the entertainment industry.
