Matt Damon shared his favorite Christopher Nolan movie.

Matt Damon has revealed the name of his favorite Christopher Nolan movie. This film is not only his favorite, but it also left Matt feeling terrified and provided a reality check.

The reason the Jason Bourne actor appreciates this movie is not because he appears in it, but because Damon believes the film delivers a strong message.

2014’s Interstellar is Matt’s favorite movie directed by Nolan. He had a small role in it alongside Anne Hathaway, Matthew McConaughey, Jessica Chastain, Timothee Chalamet, and Mackenzie Fox. The 55-year-old admitted that he initially thought he wouldn’t be able to watch the film because he was in it. However, he watched it again when it was re-released.

Damon remembers sobbing while reading the script of the sci-fi adventure. The plot of the film terrified him.

In an interview with Collider, he said, “I remember the experience of reading the script and sobbing, because I think it's about a father missing the life of his daughter and my kids were young, and that was such a terrifying thought to me that it really moved me.”

Matt will be teaming up for the third time with the Oscar-winning director Christopher in the upcoming Greek historical film, The Odyssey, set to release on July 17, 2026. 

He previously collaborated with Nolan in the blockbuster film of 2024, Oppenheimer.
