Sandra Bullock’s $297M Movie Director Revealed Why Matt Damon Was Cut Out Against Popular Notion: ‘That was really just storytelling’
In a twist worthy of a heist film, Matt Damon got the boot from ‘Ocean’s 8’ but the director cited a different reason than fan pressure.
Heist movies always hit the right spot and you can’t deny that Gary Ross’ Ocean’s 8 was an entertaining addition to the genre. Starring Sandra Bullock and Cate Blanchett as well as 6 other gorgeous women, the film is an addition to the Ocean’s series that is loved by all. While it focuses on the women executing a heist at the annual Met Gala, actor Matt Damon was also supposed to play a part in the film.
After Matt Damon made controversial comments about Hollywood’s s-xual harassment scandal relating to Harvey Weinstein, fans of the film series took it upon themselves to have him removed from Ocean’s 8. While he was eventually cut from the movie, director Gary Ross swears that the fans’ wrath wasn’t the reason.
What Did Matt Damon Say That Had Fans All Riled Up?
A few actors from the previous Ocean’s movies made cameos in Ocean’s 8 and Matt Damon was all set to be one of them. Until he wasn’t. Fans were against Damon’s involvement in the film right from the start due to his upsetting and controversial comments about the Harvey Weinstein scandal in Hollywood.
A year before the release of Ocean’s 8 starring Sandra Bullock and Cate Blanchett, Damon sat down with ABC News’ Peter Travers for Popcorn With Peter Travers. The conversation took a turn when the host talked about Weinstein and the others who had been accused of s-xual misconduct.
In the 2017 interview, Travers asked Damon, “We’re also in the age of people charged with sexual misconduct. This is everywhere. How do you react to that? Especially you, as the father of four girls.”
Damon started off strong by stating how “wonderful” it is that women are finally gathering the courage to stand against wrong and tell their stories to the world. However, his statement then turned a bit controversial.
