Harrelson's son, Woodrow Tracy Harrelson (born July 23, 1961), is actor Woody Harrelson. According to Woody, his father disappeared from the family's home in Houston in 1968, leaving his wife Diane to raise Woody and his two brothers. Woody lost track of his father until 1981, when news broke of Harrelson's arrest for the murder of Judge Wood. During an interview in November 1988, Woody revealed that he visited his father regularly in federal prison, although he still harbored mixed feelings about him, saying:
My father is one of the most articulate, well-read, charming people I've ever known. Still, I'm just now gauging whether he merits my loyalty or friendship. I look at him as someone who could be a friend more than someone who was a father.
In April 2023, actor Matthew McConaughey claimed that he and Woody Harrelson, who have been long-time friends, could potentially be half-brothers, implying that Charles Harrelson could also be his father. According to McConaughey, his mother claimed to have known Woody's father around the time that McConaughey was conceived, and the two actors have discussed taking a DNA test to be certain.

It’s just like Bill Burr and Billy Corgan: I don’t understand why these people don’t just fucking take the DNA test

Wow, I hadn't heard this. Interesting.

Tnat be fucking wild, because they played brothers in a movie once.

In the mid 90s, when I first learned about Matthew McConaughey, I did so through a magazine article about a film he was in, I saw his face in one of the pictures and I just thought it was Woody until I read his name. I was so confused at first, did Woody Harrelson change his name after getting a hair transplant or what? So, to me, them being brothers makes complete sense.
