Matthew McConaughey supports son Levi’s Hollywood debut in Apple TV+’s The Lost Bus, ensuring his role was earned through talent, not fame.

Matthew McConaughey discusses his son Levi’s entry into Hollywood amid the upcoming Apple TV+ series The Lost Bus, acknowledging the challenges of nepotism. While recognizing the advantages of a famous last name, McConaughey emphasizes the need for personal accountability and self-discovery. He ensured Levi’s audition tape excluded his name to prioritize merit, a move that led to the role being earned through talent. Levi, 17, understands the pressure but is determined to succeed on his own merits. The film, directed by Paul Greengrass, releases on Apple TV+ October 3, 2025.
