Sun Jan 26 20:40:00 UTC 2025: ## Harrelsons Still Pushing McConaughey for DNA Test to Confirm Brotherly Bond

**Las Vegas, NV** – The long-running speculation about a possible familial connection between Matthew McConaughey and the Harrelson brothers continues. Brett Harrelson, in a recent interview with TMZ, revealed that he and his brother Woody are still urging McConaughey to take a DNA test to settle the matter once and for all.

The theory gained traction after Woody Harrelson jokingly suggested on *The Late Show with Stephen Colbert* that he and McConaughey might be half-brothers. This was further fueled by McConaughey himself, who confirmed on Kelly Ripa’s podcast that his mother and Woody’s father knew each other in West Texas around the time McConaughey was conceived. Brett Harrelson corroborated this, suggesting a romantic encounter between the two occurred.

While McConaughey has expressed hesitation about potentially discovering his father wasn’t who he believed, the actors’ close friendship persists. This bond will be highlighted in their upcoming TV series, *Brother From Another Mother*, about two Texas ranchers testing their friendship. The DNA test, however, remains the ultimate arbiter of this intriguing family mystery.
