Hollywood A-listers and Texas senators met yesterday to discuss a massive new investment in film and TV production incentives that would break the current program out of its boom-and-bust financing – or, as Matthew McConaughey put it, create a system of “wood screws, not Velcro.”

Matthew McConaughey, who has spent more than three decades as an actor, told the Texas Senate Finance Committee on Monday that one of his only regrets is not making more films in Texas.

Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson were at the Texas Capitol advocating for SB 22's $500 million Texas film incentives package.
