Matthew McConaughey
Texas native MATTHEW McCONAUGHEY is one of Hollywood’s most sought-after leading men. He has won an Academy Award, appeared in over 40 feature films that have grossed over $1 billion; and has become a New York Times #1 best-selling author, producer, director, and philanthropist – all the while sticking to his Texas roots and “jk livin” philosophy.
McConaughey serves as Minister of Culture/M.O.C. for Austin FC, where he is part owner. In his role, McConaughey has lead the creative and brand vision underlying one of MLS’s most anticipated new Clubs.
