Matt Damon promised his wife a break from acting in couples therapy — with just one exception, which happened

Matt Damon is a workaholic. At least that’s how it seems when you look at the filmography of the Hollywood star, who has been involved in many projects both in front of and behind the camera. So it’s not surprising that his wife Luciana Barroso eventually asked him to take some time off. The only exception: Christopher Nolan calls with a role offer. And then came Oppenheimer. Sci-fi master Christopher Nolan torpedoed Matt Damon’s Hollywood break

Damon explained to Entertainment Weekly:

I had negotiated with my wife that I would take a break. […] In couples therapy, the only exception we agreed on was that Chris Nolan would call. I didn’t even know if he was working on a movie because he never tells you that.

Damon has previously starred in Nolan’s Interstellar and is hoping to eventually be cast in another film by the sci-fi master. Maybe he and his wife might have each other wished for a better time to call. But the atomic bomb couldn’t wait.

When is Oppenheimer coming to the cinema?

Oppenheimer starts already on July 20, 2023 in the cinema. Starring Damon in front of the camera are Cillian Murphy (Inception), Emily Blunt (Sicario) and Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man).
