Alright, alright, alright, it’s time to settle this once and for all. It may have started as a joke that Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson must be related – come on, two Texas boys with trademark chill demeanors and so many shared personality traits have to be brothers! – but now there is an official call for a DNA test by none other than Maury Povich.

I can’t say that it was a series [of conversations]. It was more of a, ‘Hey, here’s something to talk about,’” Mazin said. “Pedro was on our list from the start. We were told he was unavailable, and then as we were floundering about a little bit, I got a call from his agent who said, ‘You know, he actually might be available.’“
