My younger brother is doing a report on the life of John Wayne. Does anyone have any idea what religion he followed? He's been unable to find any info about it.

None. He was a boozer and womanizer as well as a great actor.

John Wayne was a lifelong Protestant (raised as a Presbyterian), but he was married to a Catholic (in a Catholic ceremony) and his children were raised as Catholics. According to some sources, John Wayne's son Patrick Wayne has stated that his father converted to Catholicism two days before he died.
As a bonus, John Wayne's real name is Marion Morrison

He and his brother were raised in a basic Christian household. I used to know his brother (Jim Morrison or "Grampa Jim" as everyone in the neighborhood knew him) and spent a great deal of time in his home over a period of several years. Pretty-much mainstream Christian, as I remember. And Grampa Jim was fond of quoting the Bible.

Perhaps he should concentrate on facets of the man's life that are more commonly known. The more you have to search for information the less reliable it tends to be.
