Matt Damon Says Wife Luciana Barroso Saved Him From a Career ‘Depression’ With Just Three Words

In case you didn’t already think Matt Damon and Luciana Barroso were a great team, the Oppenheimer actor just shared a story about his wife that will change your mind.

During a recent interview with Jake Hamilton, the 52-year-old actor revealed the simple, yet life-changing advice he received from his wife after falling into a “depression” over a project that wasn’t turning out the way he’d hoped. 

“I think, without naming any particular movies, that sometimes you find yourself in a movie that you know perhaps might not be what you had hoped it would be, and you’re still making it,” Damon said, per Today. “Halfway through production and you’ve still got months to go, and you’ve taken your family somewhere, and you’ve inconvenienced them. And I remember my wife pulling me up because I fell into a depression about, like, what have I done?”

But Barroso didn’t let the Good Will Hunting writer and star spiral. “She just said, ‘We’re here now,’” Damon said. “I do pride myself, in a large part because of her, at being a professional actor. And what being a professional actor means is you go and you do the 15-hour day and give it absolutely everything, even in what you know is going to be a losing effort. If you can do that with the best possible attitude, then you’re a pro, and she really helped me with that.”

In fact, Matt Damon is surrounded by supportive women. Earlier this month, Damon was joined by three of his four daughters at the Paris premiere of his latest film, Oppenheimer. You know, that movie coming out on the same day as Barbie. The actor hit the carpet with Stella, 12, Gia, 14, and Alexia, 24, while their 16-year-old daughter Isabella had other plans, according to People.
