He is currently wowing the crowds in the spectacular sci-fi drama INTERSTELLAR, but what will Matthew McConaughey do next? We know! Maybe…
The word on the street is that the Academy Award winning actor may look at the epic adaptation of the 1978 Stephen King novel THE STAND as his next project, which is being developed and will be directed by Josh Boone.
McConaughey would potentially be up for the role of villain Randall Flagg in the series of films, which could stretch to FOUR MOVIES! That’s one hell of a commitment for an actor, but we are sure that McConaughey is perfect for it; and here’s why. The story stems from The Guardian, who describe the story’s chief antagonist, as a grinning cowboy with supernatural powers who establishes a power base in the ruins of Las Vegas.
Sounds bang on.
As stated above, take this as rumour only at present. McConaughey currently has nothing due on our screens for a little while, but will lead the cast of Gus Van Sant’s THE SEA OF TREES, which is set for a 2015 release.
