Matt Damon takes the cover of Details Magazine December 2006. We learn how the bullheaded boy form Boston, one of the most adored actors in Hollywood, went from overnight sensation to virtual recluse in just 10 years. Read the full article below! Some celebrities sounded off on Matt Damon in the cover article. There were praises galore…

• Ben Affleck: “Matt is rare in that he’s an actor who doesn’t like attention. He’s not really comfortable with it, or all that comfortable with himself for that matter. Any attention just makes him feel self-conscious. If he does something he doesn’t like, it will stay with him. And if you bring up something he did 10 years ago and he’ll be like, ‘Uggh, I ****ing hate that.’ It stays with him. Matt takes it harder than most.”
• Harvey Weinstein: “Matt Damon is my family.”
• Steven Soderbergh (on a voice mail): “Matty’s great, and ‘d just like to say so publicly.”
• Robert De Niro: “Matt was just terrific. He would always be there. He’d do whatever I asked. He’d be willing to try anything.
• ‘The Good Shepherd’ co-star Angelina Jolie: “Matt’s just a really solid, genuine guy. He’s very humble and straightforward. It’s what I expected because you honestly never hear a negative word about him in this town.”
• ‘Bourne Supremacy’ producer Frank Marshall: A lot of actors let the director or the script dictate everything. Matt takes it to another level.”
• George Clooney on Matt phoning his Italian bodyguard from Ocean’s Twelve—to see if there was anything he could do for him when he heard he had been in a serious car accident that took place two years after the movie wrapped: “He’s just that guy.”

Matt Damon kissed his wife on the lips before doing his red-carpet interviews solo. When asked what kind of criminal he would make in real life, Damon replied, “Probably not a very good one. I’d probably just apologize my way out of everything. I’d be pretty useless.”

Throughout the third season of Jimmy Kimmel Live, Kimmel has made a tradition of closing each show with an apology to Matt Damon for running short on time. Matt finally got his opportunity to be on Wednesday’s show and following a lengthy introduction from Kimmel was cut short once again. As end credits began to roll, a comedic argument ensued, prompting Damon to storm off the stage and into the wings were he was left waiting for his next opportunity for a full Jimmy Kimmel Live appearance.
