American actor, screenwriter and philanthropist, Matt Damon has an estimated net worth of $75 million. Going from an unknown actor to Hollywood’s golden boy in just a few years, Matt Damon became an instant sensation when he co-wrote and starred in Good Will Hunting. With his Best Original Screenplay Oscar (shared with co-writer and co-star Ben Affleck), he earned a place in the Hollywood “It” boy roster.
A native of Cambridge, Massachusetts, where he was born on October 8, 1970, Damon grew up in affluent surroundings with his tax preparer father, college professor mother, and older brother. At the age of ten, he met a boy named Ben Affleck, who was two years younger than him and who lived down the street. The two became best friends and professional collaborators. Educated at Cambridge’s Rindge and Latin School, Damon was accepted into Harvard University, where he studied for three years before dropping out to pursue his acting career. During his time there, he had to write a screenplay for an English class: it remained unfinished, but work on it later began and turned into Good Will Hunting, which was his big break.
Before Good Will Hunting was released in 1997, Damon had received some recognition for his role as a drug-addicted soldier in Courage Under Fire; various industry observers praised his performance and his dedication to the role, for which he lost forty pounds and suffered health problems as a result. However, whatever praise Damon received was overshadowed by the acclaim he received for Good Will Hunting the following year. His Oscar win and his strong performance in the film guaranteed industry acclaim and steady employment. Damon has since starred in commercially successful films such as Saving Private Ryan (1998), the Ocean’s trilogy, and the Bourne series.
