How Matt Damon Got to 30 Rock

January 7, 2011 by studio360writer

This week, Matt Damon stops by the studio to talk about his career in movies – from his role as the windbag LaBeouf in “True Grit” to his impressive improvised monologue in “Saving Private Ryan.”  But one of our favorite appearances has to be his recent foray on NBC’s “30 Rock.” He plays Liz Lemon’s insecure pilot boyfriend who yearns to settle down for true love.

Damon told Kurt how he got the gig.

Damon’s full conversation with Kurt airs this weekend — listen online here.

    I too love Matt Damon on 30 Rock and am always amazed at all the high profile celebs end up on that show. Too bad he won’t stick around much longer.
