Movie Reviews and Previews Don’t worry, the McConaissance was already over A new trailer for Matthew McConaughey’s latest movie, Sea of Trees, came out yesterday.

Movie Reviews and Previews 10 Years of Matthew & Camila Matthew McConaughey’s Free State Of Jones opened last week with not great reviews and not a great box office.

Movie Reviews and Previews Matthew McConaughey stars in Confederate Point Break When Lainey asked me to cover the trailer for Matthew McConaughey’s new movie, Free State of Jones, I was like, “What?

Oscars 2015 McConaughey’s Oscar Marion Matthew McConaughey was the only returning acting winner who did not walk the carpet at the Oscars last night. So I totally forgot about it.

Golden Globes 2015 Matthew McConaughey & Channing Tatum: Globes present and future Matthew McConaughey is an Oscar winner. You would not have believed this 5 years ago. Maybe even 3 years ago. Back then he was synonymous with Kate Hudson. Back then he was good for taking his shirt off, thank you Matt Damon. If Matthew McConaughey can win an Oscar… why By Lainey • Jan 12, 2015 05:29 am

In short, I thought it would probably be either Matthew McConaughey or Chris Pratt, given the year that both have had. PEOPLE just released its cover for this week.

Media Manipulation Reese Witherspoon and the McConaughey model First a reminder: Reese Witherspoon’s husband, Jim Toth, is Matthew McConaughey’s agent. Together, he and McConaughey engineered what’s now known as the McConaissance. Perhaps the same game plan is now in place for Reese. Like McConaughey, what Reese is offering is supposed to be a lot more By Lainey • Nov 03, 2014 03:10 pm

Style Interstellar in London The premiere happened tonight. Let’s talk about the outfit of the week – and the person wearing it isn’t even in the movie, holy SH-T Camila Alves!

Maple Leaf Jim Carrey’s Matthew McConaughey I thought it was a pretty strong Saturday Night Live this weekend hosted by Jim Carrey. The sketches were weird if they weren’t funny, with a kind of random silliness that I found really…appealing. And his Matthew McConaughey accent is RIGHT ON.
