Up Close With Matt Damon Matt Damon Poses For The Camera Matt Damon Matt Damon In Red Sox Shirt

Born in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Matt Damon’s film debut came in Mystic Pizza (1988), with a small role alongside the similarly nascent star Julia Roberts. Steady success with minor roles led him to leave Harvard University just shy of graduation, a gamble that paid off with well-received parts in movies such as Courage Under Fire (1996), as a heroin-addicted Gulf War veteran. Yet it was Good Will Hunting (1997), which he wrote and costarred in with friend and fellow actor Ben Affleck, that gave him stardom and won him an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay. He was also nominated for Best Actor.


In the wake of that movie’s success, Damon and Affleck produced, with mixed results, the TV program Project Greenlight (2001), a documentary series that awarded inexperienced filmmakers a chance to make it big in the independent film world. Damon still worked on a number of critically praised and commercially rewarded films, including Saving Private Ryan (1998) and The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999). He also took part in smaller films for respected filmmakers such as Steven Soderbergh, Kevin Smith, Gus Van Sant, and Terry Gilliam. As Jason Bourne, the amnesiac trained killer on the run, he entered blockbuster territory with The Bourne Identity (2002) and its sequel The Bourne Supremacy (2004). He then revisited the independent realm with Syriana (2005), playing a conflicted business consultant and starring alongside George Clooney, with whom he worked on Ocean’s Eleven (2001) and its sequel, and who directed him in Confessions of a Dangerous Mind (2002). Given that Damon often flips between good and bad-guy roles, he played his ideal role as Colin Sullivan, the undercover criminal posing as a cop in Martin Scorsese’s thriller The Departed (2006).

It's just better to be yourself than to try to be some version of what you think the other person wants.

Auditioned for a role in To Die For (1995)

Audtioned for a part in Primal Fear (1996)

Both he and Ben Affleck worked as extras on the film Field of Dreams (1989)

Turned down the lead role in The Quick and the Dead (1995).

Turned down the lead role in The Majestic (2001).

Turned down the part of Bobby Mercer in Four Brothers (2005)

Turned down the role of Harvey Dent in The Dark Knight (2008).
