Matt Damon reveals wife Luciana Barroso found Ben Affleck THIS in ‘Good Will Hunting’
Matt Damon just revealed what his wife, Luciana Barroso, thought of Ben Affleck in Good Will Hunting.
For those unaware, Affleck and Damon not only played the roles of Chuckie Sullivan and Will Hunting, respectively, but they also wrote the movie Good Will Hunting.
The 1997 American romance comedy film also starred Robin Williams as Sean Maguire, Minnie Driver as Skylar, Cole Hauser as Billy McBride and others.
On Monday, January 12, Damon, along with Affleck, appeared on SiriusXM’s The Howard Stern Show, where he revealed that his wife, Barroso, was attracted to the 53-year-old American actor and filmmaker.
The Interstellar star shared that just a few months after his relationship with Barroso, she introduced him to her best friend who was interested in her, but her now-wife was drawn to Affleck.
Damon insisted, “This is f****** completely true.”
He explained, “After we’d been together for a little while, probably a few months, she admitted that – I think I met her best friend from high school, and it came out that the two of them went and saw Good Will Hunting together, and her best friend thought I was the cute one, and she thought Ben was the cute one.”
“So, she admitted to me… I’m like, ‘You got the wrong one?’ She told me that 23 years ago,” the actor of the forthcoming movie The Odyssey noted.
It is pertinent to mention that Matt Damon and Barroso, who first met in Miami in 2003 where she worked as a bartender, tied the knot in 2005 and share their three biological daughters, Isabella, Gia, and Stella Damon.
Luciana Barroso also has a daughter named Alexia Barroso from her previous marriage.
