The poor man’s Matthew McConaughey: Josh Lucas

His transformation into Judd Hirsch is almost complete.

I still want Josh in me quite deeply

I've always thought he was much better looking than MM.

I’ll forever have a soft spot in my heart for him. He portrayed Don Haskins, in the movie about the 1966 Texas Western basketball team that won the NCAA National Basketball championship. Still the ONLY college team in Texas that has a National Championship.

They beat the Kentucky Wildcats, who just happened to have Pat Riley playing for them.

Love him! He shills for Home Depot.

Always found him hot as fuck. McConaughey was always a bit leaner and more conventionally good-looking, but Josh has always possessed an average "hot dad next-door" look that I find way sexier. A bit average Joe, but the sex appeal is strong. He plays a great slime ball in the horror movie "Session 9", and he also famously fucked Jonathan Tucker in the ass in "The Deep End" (also starring Tilda Swinton). More casual moviegoers will remember him from "Poseidon" or "Sweet Home Alabama".

Way hotter than McConaughey IMO

He was good in that Palm Royale series.

I've always had a crush on him. Really attractive man.

The HBO series Empire Falls, and adaptation of a Richard Russo novel is absolutely heaving with great actors. Josh Lucas plays a young Paul Newman.

He was sexually harassed by Kevin Spacey (of course)

He door knocked in Arkansas for Hillary Clinton during her Presidential campaign. Love me a hot Democrat man.

He's very sexy

We don't need the comparison to McConaughey, Josh IS far more handsome.

Then he kisses my neck from behind, and reaches around and helps out….

Josh giving it to a young Jonathan Tucker in "The Deep End"

Wasn’t he married to that insane brunette chick? Jessica something?

H was the HOTTEST Gentleman Caller ever to grace The Glass Menagerie.

His forearms are too long. There is only one butterscotch T-Rex and that’s my Matthew.

Josh is a handsome man.

[quote] There is only one butterscotch T-Rex and that’s my Matthew.

What's a "butterscotch T-Rex"?

R15 I went to go see that movie for Goran Visnjic (he was so hot on ER) and left a Tilda fan. She was fantastic.

The Tucker/Lucas sex scene would’ve been hotter if Lucas didn’t have that creepy mustache.

If I remember correctly, they shot that scene on Tucker’s 18th birthday. They couldn’t film it until he was 18, so they did it day of.

[Quote] The poor man’s Matthew McConaughey: Josh Lucas

Does that mean the rich man’s Josh Lucas is Matthew McConaughey???

He looks a little apple-faced in the photo.

That's hot, R15!!!

I think Josh is gay.

You can't listen to him narrate those Home Depot commercials and think that he's not.

He lisps and minces his way through the dialogue, like crazy.

You can't hide gay voice. No matter how many beards you hide behind.

Who wasn't R10!

That's the second time hottie Jonathan Tucker played gay, in the clip at R15.

He also played gay on Law & Order SVU.

Damn, he's hot.

He's in his 40s now and still has a beautiful body.

Yum. We love a hairy blonde man.

It sucks that Poseidon really killed his leading man career...like it was HIS fault the movie was a bomb. It had a shitty script and characters you didn't give a fuck about. There were three main female characters and they were all thin, brunette, 20something women who you really couldn't tell apart when they were wet...which was most of the movie.

I've always lumped Tate Donovan in the Matthew McC Pretenders Club.

The 2005 movie Stealth didn’t help his career any. Back-to-back bombs. Bummer.

I’ll take Josh over Matthew any day of the week.

[quote] But he’ll always be Pepsi to Coke.

I’ve always preferred Pepsi.

Josh was married for two short years from 2012-2014.

Then he got "engaged" in 2022. Still engaged.... lol.

OP doll you’ll never get to try “Coke” or “Pepsi” so dream on.

He's plays a hot dirtbag in the movie "Mend"

I've always thought of him more as a poor man's Bradley Cooper.

Bradley Cooper is bottom of the barrel.

He IS the poor man.

[quote] Bradley Cooper is a bottom.

FIFO, R35

Not even.

R10 Wow he must have said something really forward like can I suck you off.

In what universe is this guy better looking than McBongo.

McBongo has really lost his looks over the years now especially after Dallas Buyers Club. He looks so trashy now.

[quote] He was sexually harassed by Kevin Spacey (of course)

C'mon, I just thought he was gay!

What's "butterscotch T-Rex", precious"? What's "butterscotch T-Rex"?

All the crappy movies Hollywood has remade when they should remake 'Cool Hand Luke' starring Josh Lucas. I guess what we have here, is a failure to communicate.

His full real name is a hoot. Joshua Lucas Easy Dent Maurer

R11 We had millions of democrats campaigning for me in Alabama.

As if

R25, I agree that Josh is gay. It’s the voice. But he is beautiful as well. I’ve always found him attractive, which means he is gay (I’m a lesbian and all my life whenever I have found men to be attractive, they have been gay). They are art to me. I don’t desire them but they’re pretty.

[quote] all my life whenever I have found men to be attractive, they have been gay

Oh hon, stick with what you know, which clearly is not the male of the species.

Or, change your screen name to Harried-and-Brainless.

I agree with R47.

And I think that R48 is a rude and obnoxious idiot.

Bland and as basic as a three day old bowl of farina.

Truth be known, Matthew McConaughey is the poor man's Josh Lucas.

OP, it's funny you mention that you think Josh Lucas has a "nicer voice" than MM. I've always felt the reason Josh didn't make it bigger was that he has a pretty bad case of gay voice. Although that certainly didn't stop Ryan Reynolds from becoming a big star :-)

[quote] Bland and as basic as a three day old bowl of farina.

Aww, come on. Farina was a little cutie patootie.

Agree with R23 and the others. Josh’s gayvoice is almost as pronounced as Peter Sarsgaard’s, only raspier. I always assumed he was just closeted. Maybe Spacey picked up on it too.

Nobody was huskier with a phatter ass than McConaughey. Josh is definitely hot, but 1997-era McConaughey was lethal.

McConaughey looks more like he could be Woody Harrelson’s younger, hotter brother than he looks like Josh Lucas.

Josh will find a way to put in S in Popcorn, his lisp is strong and I am not sure it's just a Southern thing. I don't think he is gay, because as a closeted actor that would have been the first thing he would have butched up instead of just accepting it as a part of who he is. Don't ask me why, but I always got him confused with Simon Baker in my mind

R56 Woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughey ARE Brothers, half brothers...

Add Patrick Wilson to this list of beefy blonde actors.

November 2024

r58 I don't think that's been proven. You'd think if it's true, it would be easy enough to do a 23andme to confirm, so I think it's probably not true.

Matthew’s mom supposedly made up that rumor.

[quote] blonde actors

He's blond?

Blond-ish at times.

"less AIDSy"

WTF

What does his business card look like?

I’m thinking hairy ass & balls

McConaughey is sketchy as hell though. He's not the nice southern boy so many pretend he is. Several years back I remember reading an article that had a bit from a guy who ran into him in the restroom of a bar somewhere in LA. He said McConaughey was pissing at a urinal a few spots down from him. At one point McConaughey turned to him with his cock in hand and said "you see that boy, that's a movie star cock". Needless to say McConaughey was likely drunk as a skunk, but still, what a pompous sleaze.

^Douchey move, but HOT AS HELL.

McConaughey was hot for a hot minute then quickly Hit The Wall.

Hammy actor, too. And, exudes doucheness.

McConaughey didn't really hit a wall until he lost all that weight for DBC and then gained it back. He was still hot, but not really at the same level. He still had that ass, though.

[quote] He still had that ass, though.

Did he? Did he really?

Much better looking than McConaughey, but his face has grown insufficiently angular and roundish, even.

Pretty in Pink.

Both Lucas and McConaughey were in The Lincoln Lawyer which also starred DL fave Ryan Phillippe. In my opinion, Lucas was much more attractive than McBongo in that film.

Josh was super hot in Sweet Home Alabama.

Lucas in The Lincoln Lawyer.

Who would complain about McBongo showing them his cock? If your friend had been fast on his feet he would have said, “I can’t tell from all the way over here.”

The rumor seems to be believed by both of them…

Woody may want to get away from his actual parentage.

[quote] Charles Voyde Harrelson (July 23, 1938 – March 15, 2007) was an American contract killer and organized crime figure who was convicted of assassinating federal judge John H. Wood Jr., the first federal judge to be assassinated in the 20th century. Charles Harrelson was the father of actors Brett and Woody Harrelson.

from the article @ R10 The Sweet Home Alabama star was said to be on a mission to come face-to-face with Spacey that night, according to RadarOnline.com's informant. "Josh is slowly getting closer to Kevin as the night is progressing. He finally gets next to Kevin and says, 'I don’t know if you remember me, but you hit on me 15 years ago and it really messed me up.'"

Why would he bother to approach Spacey and what did he think would happen?

You have to be pretty messed up already for someone hitting on you (as opposed to assaulting you) to "mess you up".

I would have been on my knees in two seconds if that urinal incident had happened to me.

Woody & his brother Brett both look a little scary now.

Josh has that beautiful hairy chest and IMO that puts him miles over hairless McBongo.

I prefer hairless, but McBong's face has not aged well.

Two or three Friday nights ago I happened upon some cable/streaming channel that was playing a marathon of [italic]In the Heat of the Night[/italic] TV movies, and was shocked to see Josh Lewis playing a (seriously) sociopathic serial rapist-murderer. He was finally caught because the last girl he raped and murdered was the daughter of the woman Carl Weathers' character was dating.

Second shock was seeing Oscar winner George C-Fucking Scott as Lucas's wealthy racist grandfather.

^^Josh *LUCAS*^^

Did Spacey hit on him when he was an adult or not?

If it was as an adult, quit being a fuckin' pussy. If someone hits on you, you politely decline and move on. If they get creepy about it, then your options are to leave or punch them in the cuntbone.

If it "messed him up" that makes it sound like the invite to homo sex was tempting to him and it terrified him.

^ you’re a fucking idiot.

My foot is itchin' to kick R87 in the cuntbone.

[quote]less AIDSy looking

Some gay dipshit using AIDS as a joke. Oy vey, now I've seen everything.

Matthew was the hottest in the early 2000s. He did a really hot and slutty photoshoot for Detour magazine in 2001. I think I might still have my copy somewhere.

I find him pretty gross now.

I prefer the one with yellow skin.

If Josh plays his cards right, he can get an Oscar from someone grabbing him in the taint!

[Quote] Did Spacey hit on him when he was an adult or not?

R87 doing the math indicates that Lucas was 31 when Spacey hit on him

Lucas, 46, was attending a House of Cards premiere after party at the The Spotted Pig in NYC when Spacey, 58, walked in with a full entourage of agents and assistants.

The Sweet Home Alabama star was said to be on a mission to come face-to-face with Spacey that night, according to RadarOnline.com's informant. "Josh is slowly getting closer to Kevin as the night is progressing. He finally gets next to Kevin and says, 'I don’t know if you remember me, but you hit on me 15 years ago and it really messed me up.'"

To which Spacey replied, "If I didn't know any better, I'd say you were hitting on ME now."

If getting hit on by some man at the age of 31 messed him up he must have been one more snowflake. There are very few good looking guys in show business who haven't been hit on by other men. I dare say most who are hit on have the balls to just say "no thanks, I'm not gay" and move on.

Are we really suggesting someone is gay by their voice with no other "evidence"? In 2025?

You must be new to DL R97.

The AIDSy look is a dealbreaker for me, too, along with stank sleeve and tattoos! I'm 97 years young and still getting plenty of action!

^Dad?^

Oh yeah, he's in Palm Royale. He's a bit doughier now but in a very sexy, louche sort of way.

The fact that Harrelson and McConaughey haven't DNA tested yet to confirm their possible familial connections tells me they're probably trying to protect someone in their family.

Otherwise these two would have been all up on the Henry Louis Gates train already.

Woody Harrellson in R82 looks disconcertingly like the bloody digit sucking grandpa in one of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre films.

[quote]But he’ll always be Pepsi to Coke.

In more ways than one, considering it's the execrable;e McBongo you're talking about.

I prefer Pepsi.

R105 = Miss Joan Crawford

McBongo lost his looks after he starved himself thin for his Oscar bid, I would take Josh Lucas over him any day

He hasn’t looked like that old pic for many years.

Yes!

[quote] I prefer Pepsi.

That's because you were not raised right.

Perfect term for his looks-“AIDSy I’ve always hated that guy. He acts like he’s some hot young actor-Go sell Buicks or whatever has been brand of SUV that was…
