Find Out Which Matthew McConaughey is Right For You
Take a quiz to find your perfect Matthew McConaughey match.
Before Matthew McConaughey’s comeback as a serious dramatic actor, he was mostly known for being in romantic comedies. So much so that you could say he was often typecast. It took a long time for him to break away from that genre, but there are some out there that may wish for the good old days.

The quiz is a bit more clever than you may think, asking questions like “Which shameless, overdone rom-com cliché is permissible when touched by the magic of Matthew McConaughey?” That’s a good, self-aware question. The quiz is very much aimed at women but there’s no harm in playing along if you’re of the male persuasion.
You can even choose your favorite post-rom-com Matthew McConaughey, including the True Detective version. For what it’s worth, we were paired with The Wedding Planner version of McConaughey, and it’s a “good thing you’re so capable and competent and would never take advantage of his good nature!”

Good thing, indeed.
