In September, the residents at The Enclave at Round Rock Senior Living in Round Rock posted a video on social media asking McConaughey to join them for bingo.

Now, he was finally able to answer the call.

McConaughey called letters to dozens of seniors playing the virtual game.

When a "Bingo" was called, the winner got to ask McConaughey a question as their prize.

Molly Davis Nedley, the sales director at The Enclave at Round Rock Senior Living, said the staff can't interact with residents as they normally would so they've been doing everything possible to uplift them virtually.

"This was a wish come true! The residents absolutely loved seeing Matthew and his family and enjoyed hearing him talk about what he's doing to get through this crisis," she said. "It gave them hope and was the boost that they needed to get through this lonely, challenging time."
