MEGA TheMegaAgency.com Matt Damon has a new movie coming out this summer, and he had to do more than learn his lines to prepare for filming. Damon stars in The Odyssey, directed by Christopher Nolan, and also features A-listers Tom Holland, Zendaya, Elliot Page and Robert Pattinson. In order to play Odysseus, the director wanted the star to have a specific body type, so Damon had to work hard on his diet and exercise regimen, as he explained to Jason and Travis Kelce on this week's episode of the "New Heights" podcast.
