About “Brothers”
Get ready for an absolute powerhouse of a comedy! “Brothers” brings the iconic duo Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson back together as fictionalized, larger-than-life versions of themselves in a hilarious, high-stakes story that tests the absolute limits of their lifelong bond. When Woody’s daughter suffers a sudden, catastrophic breakup that dissolves her engagement, Woody packs up his entire family and charges down to Austin for an extended, soul-searching recovery session at Matthew’s sprawling Texas ranch. What is supposed to be a peaceful, healing retreat quickly erupts into glorious, unmitigated chaos when Matthew’s mother, Ma Mac (brilliantly portrayed by the legendary Holland Taylor), accidentally drops a massive, long-buried bombshell: Matthew and Woody might actually be biological brothers! As a relentless Woody turns the entire ranch inside out in an obsessive quest to uncover the truth, Matthew is forced to navigate his own massive existential turmoil as he weighs a historic, high-profile run for Governor of Texas. The result is an extraordinarily heartfelt, wildly unpredictable, and electric dynamic that fearlessly blurs the line between myth and reality!
This high-octane flagship series is produced for Apple TV+ by Paramount Television Studios and features an outstanding, star-studded ensemble cast performing alongside Harrelson, McConaughey, and Taylor, including Natalie Martinez, Brittany Ishibashi, Nolan Almeida, Ella Grace Helton, Noah Carganilla, Highdee Kuan, and Oona Yaffe. Showrunner David Eisenberg, McConaughey, and Harrelson serve as executive producers alongside a formidable creative leadership team featuring Natalie Sandy, David West Read, Trish Hofmann, Bill Bost, Jason Winer, David Finkel & Brett Baer, and Jeremy Plager, with the dynamic Trent O’Donnell taking the helm to direct multiple episodes, including the pilot. Packed with undeniable chemistry, lightning-fast comedic timing, and big Texas energy, “Brothers” delivers a truly unforgettable, laugh-out-loud celebration of family, fame, and friendship that you absolutely cannot afford to miss!
