As previously reported, Matt Damon will be starring in The Informant, a dark comedy directed by Steven Soderbergh.
Not previously reported, however, were the lengths Damon is willing to go to in order to complete the role of businessman Mark Whitacre.
Here's a look at the actor on the movie's set, looking like he hasn't eaten a salad in weeks:
According to Variety, Matt Damon will star alongside Morgan Freeman in The Human Factor, the Clint Eastwood-directed movie about the 1995 Rugby World Cup.
The Good Will Hunting star will portray rugby South African team captain Francois Pienaar, who along with former South African president Nelson Mandela (Freeman) created an event that gave the country's whites and blacks a common cause to rally around as the country healed from years of apartheid.
Shooting on The Human Factor is scheduled to start in early 2009.
