Yay for no more scary, superskinny Matthew McConaughey!

The actor who once lost 38 pounds for his role in The Dallas Buyers Club has shown off a fuller figure lately, most recently on the set of his new HBO series, True Detectives, in Louisiana on Friday. 

Although he's still a little slim in the face, McConaughey's body is looking much more beefy—and doesn't completely disappear from a side view.

The eight-episode drama series centers around two detectives, played by McConaughey and Woody Harrelson, whose lives collide during a 17-year hunt for a serial killer in Louisiana.

The actor debuted his initial weight gain in January New York Film Critics Circle Awards dinner, where he told reporters, "I was 135 lbs., and now I'm up to 160 lbs, so I'm done with that and on my way back."

Lookin' good so far!
