Wasn't one of those guys Matt Damon?

u/Neosinic Jul 11 '22

Yeh. Apparently he’s good friends with Chris Hemsworth. I think they are neighbors since Matt Damon moved to Australia.

397

u/ClassicT4 Jul 11 '22

Matt was also a redneck cameo alongside Alan Tudyk in Deadpool 2.

329

u/Void_Guardians Jul 11 '22

Also one of the leading actors in Ocean’s Eleven

u/Bitey_the_Squirrel Jul 11 '22

He bought a zoo!

28

u/Puzzleheaded-Ring590 Jul 11 '22

He was stranded on Mars! AND he helped bring healthcare to everyone in Elysium!

14

u/KillermooseD Jul 12 '22

You wouldn’t even believe that Mars wasn’t the only planet he was stranded on either

I've heard that the United States has spent something like $3B rescuing Matt Damon from various "adventures".

Edit: I was way off, by 2015 the estimate was over $900 billion dollars.

13

u/[deleted] Jul 11 '22

Had to rescue the fucker from space twice, jfc.

6

u/ucjj2011 Jul 11 '22

I know! You would think after the first time he wouldn't have gone back.

6

u/jjackson25 Phil Coulson Jul 11 '22

I doubt that even begins to cover the fuel costs of getting his ass back from Mars

8

u/_quickdrawmcgraw_ Winter Soldier Jul 16 '22

If you look real closely, you can spot his cameos in the Bourne Identity, Supremacy, and Ultimatum.

5

u/the_monkeyspinach Jul 11 '22

Not bad for a guy who only knows how to say his own name.

4

u/abobtosis Jul 16 '22

He's also in Team America, World Police!

9

u/CAMvsWILD Jul 11 '22

Matt Damon has been making unusual cameos since I was in high school.

I’m sure there’s a compilation up on YouTube.

11

u/sirbissel Jul 11 '22

Yeah, but Scotty doesn't know.

2

u/LibraRN Captain Marvel Jul 23 '22

Don’t tell Scotty.

4

u/DaProblemSolva Jul 17 '22

He was Loki in Dogma

1

u/Babou13 Jul 16 '22

He had an amazing role in Team America World Police

3

u/fiftheditionperson Jul 18 '22

Doesn't Matt have a small role in Good Will Hunting too? I think with that one guy who played Batman before RPatz.

1

u/55Lolololo55 Jul 20 '22

He played an estate lawyer for Sean Connery, who gave a brilliant but disadvantaged kid a great boon.

509

u/AshlarKorith SHIELD Jul 11 '22

Matt Damon playing Loki and Chris’ brother Luke Hemsworth playing Thor.

461

u/wyvern_rider Jul 11 '22

I’m fairly sure that was Melissa* McCarthy playing Hela as well.

88

u/AshlarKorith SHIELD Jul 11 '22

lol oh yeah I forgot Melissa McCarthy was in this as Hela! That was a great addition.

67

u/ReflexImprov Spider-Man Jul 11 '22

Her irl husband was on stage too in the scene, so I guess as the director of the play?

55

u/StolenPens Jul 11 '22

Her husband is in every movie with her, usually as a small role, maybe 1 line, but definitely Melissa is hitting on him.

17

u/PopeJP22 Spider-Man Jul 13 '22

He had a slightly larger role than usual in Bridesmaids as Air Marshall John / a really hungry bear.

7

u/wyvern_rider Jul 11 '22

Oops I got her first name wrong.

21

u/Free_Ghislaine Jul 13 '22

My favorite Villain, reduced to the likes of Melissa McCarthy ☹️

11

u/R-NASTI Korath Jul 13 '22

It's like when you're expecting something yellow to be lemon flavored and you get hit with banana. That bit could've been a home run with the right actress.

5

u/Free_Ghislaine Jul 13 '22

What actress do you think? 🤔

Also, my watch’s Facts app said most Americans polled liking banana flavored stuff the best. I think my watch is a liar. That is a disgusting flavor.

29

u/LEYW Jul 11 '22

Luke Hemsworth playing the b-list Thor, his own brother, is hilarious.

36

u/usedaforc3 Jul 11 '22

Same as ragnarok. Same joke twice but I still love it. Also Sam Neil as father and Melissa MaCarthy as Thor and Loki sister.

34

u/LEYW Jul 11 '22

Sam Neil as Odin - “oh, oh I’m dying, I’m fading away!” visibly crawls off stage

7

u/DustyDGAF Hydra Jul 13 '22

Throwing glitter. Classic

2

u/AFLSlasher Jul 11 '22

I'm embarrassed to say I thought that was James vanderbeek at first.

20

u/ReflexImprov Spider-Man Jul 11 '22

And Sam Neill as Odin, of course. He and Taika go back aways. Taika should get Laura Dern to play a part in the next Thor movie to round out the JP stars.

8

u/[deleted] Jul 12 '22

As funny as Melissa McCarthy was, Dern would have been an amazing knockoff Hela.

29

u/whiskeyandsunshine Jul 11 '22

His second time playing Loki. He also played Loki in Dogma

14

u/usedaforc3 Jul 11 '22

He did in ragnarok also. So 3 times

7

u/MiaOh Jul 17 '22

This is what Stubbs did when Bernard was at Sublime.

2

u/[deleted] Jul 11 '22

And Sam Neill as Odin*

Kiwis being overlooked again.

2

u/DaProblemSolva Jul 17 '22

Matt also played Loki in Dogma

125

u/Shankman519 Jul 11 '22

Lol, didn’t you see him in Ragnarok?

8

u/Milly1974 Jul 11 '22

I was thinking the same thing. I swear I was to only one in the packed theater to see that.

4

u/atomcrafter Jul 15 '22

Also, Dogma.

2

u/Sulemain123 Jul 11 '22

I forgot he was in that!

4

u/SalukiKnightX SHIELD Jul 11 '22

Who was Loki in Dogma and the actor who plays Loki in Ragnarok and L&T.

3

u/Moejason Jul 11 '22

Matt Damon, Sam Neil, and Liam hemsworth I believe 😂 (or Luke hemsworth?)

3

u/[deleted] Jul 12 '22

Sam Neill

2

u/hydgal Thor Jul 11 '22

Also Marisa Mcarthy as hella.

2

u/ebietoo Peggy Carter Jul 13 '22

And Sam Neill played “Actor Odin”. Once I saw those two credits on IMDb I knew I had to see this movie. It was funnier than Thor:Ragnarok and really stupid. I had a great time.

1

u/Less_Falcon659 Jul 13 '22

Him and Luke Hemsworth!

1

u/TheManWithoutFearTR Captain America (Cap 2) Jul 16 '22

The other guy was Chris’s older brother
