Matt Damon has revealed that he would love to be as successful as Clint Eastwood.

Damon worked with Eastwood on recent movie Invictus and has now admitted that he was impressed by the director.

He told Coming Soon: "He started directing around my age and to see a guy who's that invigorated by what he does, who's been doing it for that long, is awesome.

"That really is something that I hope I can have in my life. It's such a full life, to be totally engaged and inspired and not be jaded and cynical but still love telling stories."

Damon recently announced that he plans to move into directing in the future.
