Matt Damon Vows To Never Eat A Single Grape Again After Odyssey Ordeal

Matt Damon is finally putting his foot down, and honestly, we’re here for it. After shrinking his physique to play a legendary hero in a Christopher Nolan epic, Matt has decided that he’s officially retired from the 'extreme diet' lifestyle. Sources close to his refrigerator say the actor is currently staging a protest against anything that isn't a double cheeseburger or at least bread-adjacent. Apparently, going full Odyssey required the kind of discipline that involves staring at a piece of grilled chicken until you start to see God. Matt says he’s done with the hunger pangs. If a role requires him to have a six-pack, he’s suggested Nolan just draw them on with a Sharpie or hire a body double who doesn't mind weeping over a bowl of steamed spinach every night. He’s also over the period-piece wardrobe. The actor joked that if he never has to strap on a pair of leather gladiator sandals again, it’ll be too soon. Between the calorie counting and the calf-chafing, Matt is ready to move into his 'loose-fitting sweaters and pasta' era, which is a lifestyle we can all get behind. If the next script doesn't allow for a mid-scene snack, you can expect his agent to hit 'decline' before the email even lands.
