Matthew McConaughey Talks “Unbranding” in Hollywood

Speaking frankly about his career with Esquire, McConaughey talks about his transition from romantic comedies to serious dramas like Dallas Buyer’s Club. Following the filming of Ghosts of Girlfriends Past in 2008, McConaughey reflects, “All of a sudden. I understood, whoa, that’s become my brand.”
