If you had told me, back in the days of FAILURE TO LAUNCH and SAHARA, that Matthew McConaughey would become one of the most revered and celebrated actors of the 2010s, I would never have believed it. However, that’s exactly how things turned out with phenomenal turns in BERNIE, MAGIC MIKE, MUD, and KILLER JOE. He’s continuing on that winning streak thanks to upcoming roles in Christopher Nolan’s INTERSTELLAR as well as his latest bid for Oscar glory in DALLAS BUYER’S CLUB, where he plays a homophobe who discovers he has contracted AIDS and begins to smuggle the latest untested drugs to other AIDS sufferers. Word from the US has been incredibly strong, with both McConaughey and Jared Leto being tipped for awards season.
DALLAS BUYER’S CLUB is out in the UK on 7th February 2014. It stars Matthew McConaughey, Jared Leto, Jennifer Garner, and Steve Zahn.
