About this listen
Over the past few days, the headline is a new chapter on the page: I am set to hit the road in September for a five city tour celebrating my new book Poems and Prayers, the long awaited follow up to Greenlights, with an onstage format built for candid conversation and reflection that signals a deeper pivot into author and storyteller alongside actor, with a Nashville stop locked for September 18 at TPAC’s Jackson Hall, tickets on sale now, per Williamson Source and Rutherford Source[1][2]. Industry wise, the buzz is building that I am in talks to star as hardboiled icon Mike Hammer in a Skydance feature written by True Detective creator Nic Pizzolatto, a potential reunion with long term impact if it moves forward; that status is not closed, with Deadline via IMDb framing it as talks and development under Skydance’s David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, and Don Granger, with author Max Allan Collins set as EP, so file as likely but not finalized[3]. In the here and now of headlines, KOMO News picked up an excerpt from late producer Jon Landau’s memoir claiming I refused to drop my accent in a Titanic audition scene with Kate Winslet, costing me the role of Jack Dawson; it is a published memoir account, widely aggregated, but as with any recollection it remains one side of the room, so treat as reported, not independently corroborated by Cameron or me this week[4]. On the home front of public appearances, family snapshots from the archives resurfaced in entertainment press noting our kids looking all grown at April’s Mack, Jack and McConaughey gala in Austin, a reminder of our ongoing philanthropic lane and its long term legacy, as summarized by Just Jared via IMDb News[5]. In the business column adjacent to our house, Camila Alves McConaughey’s OneSkin investment got fresh ink with a new 20 million Series A led by Prelude Growth Partners; Cosmetics Business reports the raise reinforces longevity beauty’s momentum and notes Camila among prior investors, signaling a family footprint across consumer wellness[6]. For social chatter, the book tour announcement is driving most of the recent mentions, with local outlets amplifying dates and format, and industry trades spinning out the Mike Hammer talks as a potential return to gritty masculine mythmaking; both carry lasting biographical weight if the tour’s reception and the film’s greenlight align[1][2][3].
