Matt Damon has established himself as an A-lister in Hollywood along with his childhood friend Ben Affleck. The breakthrough that he and his best friend was looking for in Hollywood came in the form of Good Will Hunting, which they co-wrote. This helped them become overnight sensations.

Damon established himself as a serious actor after landing a role in the Ocean’s trilogy which also helped him earn more investment money.
Of course, his role as Jason Bourne in the Bourne franchise must be mentioned here because it helped him show off his martial arts moves. Aside from acting, Damon likes to produce too.
