Matthew McConaughey was seen comforting his 16-year-old son, Levi, on the California set of his debut film, “Way of the Warrior Kid.”
Video obtained by TMZ Wednesday shows the “Dallas Buyers Club” star giving his seemingly worried son an encouraging pat on the shoulder which was followed by a brief chat at Mission Beach in San Diego.
Levi was about to film a pull-up scene when his famous father spoke with him, according to a TMZ source.
The actor, 54, is not involved in the production but appeared to be there to mentor his eldest son.
“Me and your mom hope we’ve done as good of a job as we can. You’re not gonna really have us as a safety net out there in the wonderful, wild world forever,” the actor said.
“Just go out, enjoy. Be aware of your surroundings. Be yourself. Know when to say yes, know when to say no, know when to say maybe,” he continued.
“See the good in everybody else, but know that not everyone else is always paying attention.”
