Matthew McConaughey unveils his COVID-19 alter ego Bobby Bandito

Well howdy there, pardners. It looks as if quarantine is causing Matthew McConaughey to go a might loco in la cabeza. Well, perhaps no more than usual, I reckon.

Recently while engaing in a remote guest spot for The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the COVID-19 PSA preachin' star of Guy Ritchie's THE GENTLEMEN, McConaughey, introduced viewers to "Bobby Bandito," his pandemic-inspired alter ego.

"He's gotta be a bandit to beat a bandit. He's gotta be a little shady to beat this shady guy," McConaughey informed Colbert's audience while using a slightly-cartoonish Southern accent. "I was out hiking on our property and came across this guy nailin' a Most Wanted sign into my tree. I said, 'What are you doin' on my property?' He turned around and said, 'I'm Bobby B. You never see me comin'."

Much like COVID-19, Bobby Bandito is a silent hunter. However, the outlaw has got a lot of livin' to do, and he's not about to let some pesky disease be the reason that he takes a dirt nap before long. No sir, Bobby B is all about spreading the good word of being properly protected during this trying time. He's even got an easy step-by-step demonstration for y'all that'll teach you how to make a decent mask out of a bandanna, some rubber bands, and a common coffee filter. 


Lookie here, cowpokes. COVID-19 isn't fussin' about, and ain't no one immune from this invisible menace. In other words, it's best for everyone that you protect yourself, lest you want to end up becoming a vector for the disease, and unknowingly passing it on to your neighbors or kin. So please, if you gotta mosey on out of your homes for some supplies, be sure to be like Bobby Bandito and mask up before you make the journey.
