Levi McConaughey Signs With CAA
EXCLUSIVE: Actor Levi McConaughey has signed with CAA.
Recently, McConaughey made his onscreen debut in Apple Original Films’ The Lost Bus, directed by Paul Greengrass. Based on Lizzie Johnson’s 2021 book Paradise: One Town’s Struggle to Survive an American Wildfire, the film centers on the 2018 Camp Fire, the deadliest and most destructive wildfire in California’s history, telling the true story of a school-bus driver (Matthew McConaughey) and school teacher (America Ferrera) who escaped the inferno and, in the process, saved the lives of 22 children under their care.
Written by Greengrass and Brad Ingelsby, the film premiered at the Toronto Film Festival, hitting limited theaters in the U.S. on September 19 before making its way to Apple TV on October 3.
McConaughey will next be seen starring alongside Chris Pratt, Linda Cardellini, Jude Hill and Ava Torres in Way of the Warrior Kid, Apple and Skydance’s adaptation of the bestselling children’s novel by Jocko Willink. Directed by McG, the film follows a self-doubting boy who gets bullied and is hard-pressed to complete a single pull-up. That’s until his uncle Jake, an elite Navy SEAL, is injured on a mission and moves in with his sister for rehab. When he discovers his 13-year-old nephew, Marc, is struggling academically, socially and physically, Jake takes on a new mission: using his SEAL Team training over three months of summer to help the youth find his inner warrior. A release date for that title has not yet been set.
McConaughey continues to be represented by Todd Shemarya at Todd Shemarya Artists and Align PR.
