Presenting the final award
The two actors stood together to present the night's last prize during the ceremony. They are currently preparing to launch a new comedy project titled Brothers on Apple TV+.
Origin of the series idea
McConaughey joked about Harrelson winning an Emmy for his role in Widow's Bay while they were on stage. The pair has developed a semi-scripted comedy based on their real-life friendship and family rumors. McConaughey does not want to take a DNA test to confirm if they are half-brothers.
Harrelson views the connection
Harrelson believes the two men are related because of their close bond over three decades. The show features fictionalized versions of the friends interacting with plenty of ribbing and affection.
