Matt Damon reveals that ‘You’re a better actor the less people know about you’

Matt Damon is one of a select few of actors that still command an audience and draw millions of people to their local movie theaters just to see him act. But, in a recent interview, the A-list actor revealed some of the wildest acting advice probably ever stated by a professional actor.

In an interview with the Guardian, Matt Damon revealed what it is like working in Hollywood.

He thinks attitudes are changing, and welcomes the introduction of same-sex marriage in California in 2008. “I think it must be really hard for actors to be out publicly,” he continues. “But in terms of actors, I think you’re a better actor the less people know about you period. And sexuality is a huge part of that. Whether you’re straight or gay, people shouldn’t know anything about your sexuality because that’s one of the mysteries that you should be able to play.”

That’s a pretty good point and he must be right. As Forbes Magazine points out, Matt Damon is Hollywood’s most bankable actor, averaging $29 in takings for every dollar he earned in a movie.


Matt Damon’s latest production The Martian which is directed by the highly controversial Ridley Scott and co-starring Jeff Daniels, Chiwetel Ejiofor and Kristen Wiig, Matt Damon plays Mark Watney, a Nasa astronaut who finds himself stranded on Mars after he is injured in a fierce storm and presumed dead by his crew.

Matt Damon’s interview with The Guardian is pretty eye opening. Check out the full interview here.

The Martian hits theaters on October 2, 2015.
