Matt Damon wants to direct after turning 40
February 1st, 2010 - 1:28 pm ICT by IANSLondon, Feb 1 (IANS) Hollywood star Matt Damon isn’t worried about turning 40 this year and says he wants to turn to direction in the new decade of his life.
Damon, who will turn 40 in October, said: “I can’t wait to direct. The only thing that is stopping me from directing is that I keep getting these great roles.”
The “Bourne Identity” says he isn’t worried about ageing because his “Invictus” co-star Morgan Freeman, 72, told him that 40 is the best age to be, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
“I was talking to Morgan and someone said I was about to turn 40 and Morgan said, ‘Are you about to turn 40?’ I said I was and he said, ‘You are just coming into your prime.’ I said, ‘Really?’ And he replied, ‘The 40s are the best decade by far. That’s when things really get good’,” said Damon.
