Matthew McConaughey Signs On For 'Gold' & 'Born To Run'

McConaissance continues.

After winning an Academy Award for 'Dallas Buyers Club' last year, Matthew McConaughey continues to sign on for interesting project after interesting project. Having already completed filming 'Sea of Trees' and gearing up to film 'The Free State of Jones' with rising star Gugu Mbatha-Raw, the stud has already lined up his next two film projects.

'Gold', which is slated to begin production in June for a 2016 release, is based on the real-life experience of a modern day prospector, played by McConaughey, who teams up with a geologist to hunt for gold deep in the unchartered jungle of Indonesia. The globe-trotting adventure culminates in one of the most unexpected and scandalous frauds of our time.

'Born To Run', on the other hand, is based on Christopher McDougall's best-selling book 'Born to Run: A Hidden Tribe, Super Athletes, and the Greatest Race the World Has Never Seen', and follows the author as he digs into how the Tarahumara Indians, who live in Mexico’s Copper Canyons, have trained themselves to run for hundreds of miles without rest or injury. The story culminates in a race that pits the tribe against some of America’s top ultra-runners. Interesting!
