Martha Stewart admits Matthew McConaughey ‘scared’ her during ‘crazy’ filming experience

It was not alright, alright, alright.

Martha Stewart admitted Matthew McConaughey “scared” her with his method acting while filming their Super Bowl 2025 commercial for Uber Eats.

The lifestyle guru discussed the experience with the actor’s repeated co-star Kate Hudson on Tuesday’s episode of Stewart’s eponymous podcast.

“So I just worked with your co-star Matthew McConaughey,” Stewart began.

When the “Running Point” star asked whether McConaughey was “wild,” Stewart jokingly replied, “He got me scared actually.”

“There I am, I’m a board member of Uber Eats and I’m the one who’s making the Caesar salad and Matthew — he had to play many characters in that commercial. He is a method actor, I think,” Stewart, 83, said.

Hudson, 45, seemed confused by Stewart’s admission as she attempted to clarify whether she meant McConaughey was a method actor “of commercials.”

“Of characters,” Stewart responded. “Because he had to play 10 characters, and he got into each character. It takes him about 15 minutes.”

McConaughey, 55, played numerous different characters — including legendary Chicago Bears coach Mike Ditka and an NFL exec — in the star-studded Uber Eats commercial, which aired during the big game Feb. 9.

In one scene featuring Stewart and pop star Charli XCX, the Oscar winner cracked a joke about Caesars Superdome being named after a salad as a conspiracy to sell food.

“He’s grunting and breathing and jumping up and down. And that scared me,” Stewart recalled of McConaughey’s preparation.

Hudson — who starred with the actor in “Fool’s Gold” and “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days” — seemed to understand where Stewart was coming from, as she agreed, “He’d make weird sounds. He makes sounds and does crazy things.”

“You probably just wanted to tell him to shut the hell up,” Stewart quipped in response.

“You just wait, It’s like his warm-up,” Hudson said. “We have so much fun when we’re working. It’s been a long time.”

The actress went on to call McConaughey one of “the most fun people to work with,” citing their mutual competitiveness.
