Calgary Matt Damon's Daughter Won't Watch 'Good Will Hunting' For One Very Teenager-y Reason | HuffPost Entertainment - Action.News ABC Action News WestNet-HD Weather Traffic

Matt Damon s daughter acts like a typical teenager when it comes to viewing and praising her famous fathers most well-known movies.

The actor revealed during an interview with CBSs Sunday Morning that his 15-year-old, Isabella, prefers to watch her fathers greatest flops and give him shit over some of his career choices, rather than watch anything he was good in.

The revelation arose after CBS News correspondent Seth Doane asked Damon whether people still connected him with Good Will Hunting.

Sure, yeah fewer and fewer, the actor said. You know, younger people dont know it as much. You know, my 15-year-old refuses to see it. She doesnt want to see any movies that Im in that she thinks might be good.

She just likes to give me shit, Damon said, as he and Doane laughed. My daughter said, Yeah, remember that movie you did, The Wall? I said, It was called The Great Wall. She goes, Dad theres nothing great about that movie.

Damon said his daughter keeps my feet firmly on that ground.

How do you like them apples?

\"She just likes to give me sh*t.\"

Its total resistance, the Bourne Identity star told People in 2019. I am kind of trying to force them, its not working.

Im like, Are you sure you dont want to see Good Will Hunting? You know your dad and Uncle Ben wrote it, right? he said, adding that his kids usually answer with a Yeah, dad, I know.

Damon did admit that there was one movie that resonated with his kids: the 2015 movie The Martian, a choice he called odd.
