Matthew McConaughey BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

This has been a lively fall for Matthew McConaughey, packed with both nostalgia and notable forward motion. The week’s buzziest headline came from Pantalones Organic Tequila, the brand he co-founded with his wife, Camila Alves. The couple turned McConaughey’s infamous 1999 arrest for playing bongos naked and high in Austin into a cheeky anniversary campaign. According to People and Fox News Digital, McConaughey and Alves gave a dramatic, playful reading of the original police report—complete with bongo accompaniment—for a new Pantalones video. The ad is narrated by none other than the Law & Order voice superstar Steve Zirnkilton, and they even launched a cocktail called “Pantsless and Famous,” riffing on the event and the brand’s mantra of “marching to your own beat.” Fans loved how McConaughey, now 55, still owns his wild past with charm and a hefty dose of self-deprecating wit. LADbible and People note that McConaughey admitted the legendary incident wasn’t isolated, saying it’s happened about 45 times since the arrest—still, the “official” police run-in remains a cultural meme twenty-six years later.

In higher-minded affairs, McConaughey is lending his star power to the Earthshot Prize, Prince William’s global environmental award. Alongside a new teaser for this year’s ceremony—set for November 5 in Rio de Janeiro—McConaughey narrates as “real-life action heroes” working to save the planet, according to Royal Insider. The star-packed event, which he will attend, also features Kylie Minogue, Shawn Mendes, and Brazilian stars like Anitta and Seu Jorge. This engagement highlights McConaughey’s sustained interest in global causes alongside his entertainment career.

On the family front, McConaughey’s eldest son, 17-year-old Levi, made a striking solo appearance at the Clarins and V Magazine Golden Hour Celebration in Austin—a rare public step for a teen usually kept out of the spotlight, as Hello! Magazine reported. Levi’s red carpet debut, paired with reports of his acting in The Lost Bus (with McConaughey as his on-screen father), brings fresh attention to the family’s creative DNA and the “nepotism” debate in Hollywood. McConaughey has said his son earned the part without a parental assist, and emphasized giving Levi room to find his own path.

There’s no major news this week about new films, major deals, or viral social moments beyond the coordinated Pantalones and Earthshot campaigns. No credible outlets have reported new acting roles, business acquisitions, or personal scandals. The net worth estimates remain steady, with The Tradable pegging his fortune at about $160 million, accrued from iconic roles, savvy endorsements, and entrepreneurship—a balance of Texas swagger and Hollywood hustle. For now, McConaughey is keeping his image polished but playful, blending environmental advocacy, family milestones, and a dash of well-aged mischief.
