Matt Damon Joins The Cast Of Christopher Nolan's INTERSTELLAR

He may have quickly dismissed reports that he'll be teaming up with Ben Affleck's Batman, but Matt Damon will soon be working with a director well-known for his connection to the Caped Crusader. That's right, the former Bourne star is the latest addition to the cast of Interstellar!

In an exciting piece of casting news, The Playlist have revealed that Matt Damon is the latest addition to the cast of Christopher Nolan's Interstellar. While details on the character he will play are of course being kept under lock and key, they do reveal that it will be a fairly minor role as Damon will only be on set - in Iceland - for two weeks of the four month shoot. The actor joins an incredible lineup of stars which includes Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, Casey Affleck, John Lithgow, Topher Grace and Michael Caine. What do you guys think?

I wonder how everybody fan casting Damon as Lex Luthor feels about him after his Batman is just a guy growling comment. Maybe he thinks Lex Luthor is just a quirky, eccentric, business man.

Crazy good casting for this movie... Chris Nolan is at least putting together a 'Stellar' team... let's hope the movie is as good as the cast.

@sunfire I'm with you on Clooney and Affleck but Damon was fantastic in Bourne, The Rainmaker and (less so) the Departed. I wish he had a bigger role in Interstellar

Well this is INSANE!
The cast of Interstellar is absolutely mind fvckingly Awesome!

Damon was Nolan's first choice for Harvey Dent for TDK, he couldn't do just cuz schedule conflict with last BOURNE film that he was already signed on for!
So him working with Nolan even briefly is great & he can be a part of DCU, cuz of Ben & Nolan!!

Holy exciting movie news Batman! This cast looks sick, The story sounds very interesting. I'm not the biggest Nolan fan (thought TDK was decent, and I haven't gotten around to watching Inception yet) but this film is becoming my most anticipated non-CBM film of '14.

Man, I was hoping he'd have a bigger role in this, but hey, the cast looks great, the plot to this film intrigues me, and Matt Damon is a [frick]ing AMAZING actor. Much respect to him and his work.

[frick] Matt Damon. Are we to believe that the Man that described playing the Role of Batman as "He's Not King Lear" Is going to take a role in Guardians of the Galaxy seriously?!

@monkeyballs I think it's just Nolan's attempt at making an original science fiction movie, not an attempt at trying to copy another one.
