Though having left the genre behind, Matthew McConaughey recalls how a fortune-teller was behind his rom-com success. Having first found success with his work in more dramatic fare with Joel Schumacher's A Time to Kill and Steven Spielberg's Amistad in the '90s, among others, McConaughey began looking to the brighter side of things at the turn of the millennia starring in the likes of satirical comedy EDtv and the Jennifer Lopez-co-starring The Wedding Planner. Though the latter was a box office success, it would be his next film in the genre that would propel him to further stardom.
