Matthew McConaughey has long been known as one of the A-tier actors in Hollywood. From being a Hollywood hunk to an Academy Award-winning actor, the star has proved that he can not only act in commercially successful films but also in critically acclaimed projects by taking on diverse roles in various movie genres.
Throughout his remarkable career, the Interstellar actor has done the type of acting that would make any father proud of his son. Sadly, his dad is not here to see his son’s stardom, as he died back in 1992.
However, in the aftermath of his father’s demise, McConaughey shared how his father seemed to have predicted his own death. Though it is tragic to hear about his dad’s passing, it is admittedly hilarious how he would be making his exit from the face of Earth.
Matthew McConaughey Gets Candid on His Dad’s Tragicomical Prediction
Matthew McConaughey and his father were quite close, and he instilled a lot of good values in his son as he taught the actor the importance of hard work while growing up. His father was a visionary who not only believed that his son would be one of the biggest names in the film industry but also predicted his own death.
The Dallas Buyers Club appeared as a guest on The Howard Stern Show, where he was asked by the host how his dad had foreseen his death, where he would go out “probably b**ging your mom.”
The actor acknowledged the statement and explained the hilarious aftermath. He said,
He said, ‘Boy’s when I go, I’m going to be makin’ love to your mother.’ He called his shot. 6:30 AM on a Monday morning. He had a heart fibrillation.
However, that’s not all because Howard Stern asked if his mother wanted her husband to be carried out of the house naked so that the neighbors could see the gift that was Jim McConaughey.
To clarify, Stern explained that the gift must have been a “big c*ck.” Matthew McConaughey added,
The paramedics were covering him and all the neighbors were out in the street, and he’s going down the garage. What’s the sensible thing to do at 7 AM? Cover him. My mom’s out there half-naked, ripping the sheet off, going, ‘Get that sheet off him; you’re gonna see how big Jim went out!’
Stern joked, “I hoped he had a boner at that point,” to which the actor laughed and said, “I do too.”
Although the news of Jim McConaughey was tragic, the way he went out was indeed hilarious, and fans had some hilarious remarks to drop in the comments section.
