These are photos of Matt Damon at the airport in LA yesterday and outside the gym about a month ago. Damon is surely prepping to play Bourne again, he’s agreed to do another sequel now that director Paul Greengrass is onboard again, and it shows. He looks great, but I like him no matter what. Damon is always my favorite.

In terms of Damon’s career, he’s got a Ridley Scott movie coming out this fall, The Martian, in which he plays an astronaut abandoned on Mars. I think the photo below is from that set. He’s also about to start work on The Great Wall, a “mystery centered around the construction of the Great Wall of China,” with Willem Dafoe and Pedro Pascal.

Accompanying Damon on his many film shoots will be his loyal assistant, Colin, (shown above) a Seattle Seahawks fan from Sammamish, Washington. Damon is of course a New England Patriots fan from Boston. Like other bets he’s had with friends of rival teams in the past, Damon made a bet with Colin. He promised to wear a Seahawks jersey in a major interview if the Seahawks won The Super Bowl while Colin apparently promised to wear a Patriots jersey for an entire year if the Patriots were victorious. That seems pretty unfair, and now Colin has to pony up. Here’s what Damon told a Washington radio station ahead of the Super Bowl.

If the Seahawks win
“On the talk show of his choice, I have to wear a Russell Wilson jersey. I have to come out and do the whole talk show in a Russell Wilson jersey.”

If the Patriots win
“Colin and I have about a year of work lined up all over the world and he’s got to wear a Tom Brady jersey everywhere we go. I’m going to take a picture of him every day. We’re going to the Great Wall. I’m just going to start a blog and it’s going to be this miserable Seattle fan wearing a Patriots jersey in seven or eight different countries.”

How is it fair that Damon would only have to wear a Seahawks jersey once while Colin has to wear a Patriots jersey the entire year? That is a real boss/employee dynamic right there, but maybe Colin only has to put the shirt on for a photo op and then he gets to take it off. Incidentally, Damon made a similar Superbowl bet with Anthony Mackie (his co-star in The Adjustment Bureau) in 2010. Damon was stuck wearing a New Orleans Saints jersey on Letterman. What I wouldn’t give to be in the same room as Matt Damon and Anthony Mackie, even if they were talking sports.
