Matthew McConaughey Considers
Running for Texas Governor.
This week, McConaughey appeared on ‘The Balanced
Voice’ podcast and spoke about a possible political run. .
The 51-year-old Texas native
said it was a “true consideration”
of his to run for governor. .
McConaughey went on to question his “next chapter in life”
and says he thinks he has some “things to teach and share.” .
I’m looking into now, what is my
leadership role? … Because I do think
I have some things to teach and
share … What is my role, what is
my category in my next chapter
of life that I’m going into now?, Matthew McConaughey, on 'The Balanced Voice'.
For now, it seems McConaughey has
“no plans” to run any time soon. .
In an interview with Stephen Colbert on the ‘Late Show’
in 2020, McConaughey confessed that it was something he'd consider as he "move[d] forward in life.".
I have no plans to do that right now …
I don’t get politics … Politics seems
to be a broken business. Politics
needs to redefine its purpose. As I
move forward in life, yes, am I gonna
consider leadership roles where
I can be most useful? I’d love to. , Matthew McConaughey, on 'The Late Show With Stephen Colbert'.
