Throughout the COVID-19 crisis, McConaughey has been using his social media presence and celebrity to bring encouragement to fans during quarantine.

"Let's unite, be responsible for ourselves," McConaughey said. "Today's containment is gonna bring tomorrow's congregation...Stay home, hook 'em and just keep livin'."
In classic McConaughey fashion, he also shared how to make homemade face masks out of a bandana, a coffee filter and rubber bands.
The Oscar-winning actor and his family also hosted a virtual bingo night for residents of The Enclave at Round Rock Senior Living in Round Rock, Texas.
"Thank you to Matthew, his wife Camila, and his mom Kay for hosting our residents for a few rounds of virtual bingo! Our residents had a great time playing, and they loved talking with Matthew about his family heritage and his favorite drink," read a post on the senior living facility's Facebook page.
