Bourne Again

Matt Damon is at it again. The superstar is reprising his role as Jason Bourne, a deadly agent in "The Bourne Supremacy," and he let us in on his secret for making it all look so believable.

"I tried to be in as many of the action sequences as possible because the audiences are so smart now," Damon revealed. "It's kind of a pet peeve of mine that people say they do their own stunts. That really pisses me off. It's like, you're an actor, lay off."

Damon's other pet peeve is seeing a good man take a beating, like his best friend Ben Affleck did while dating Jennifer Lopez. "That was pretty tough because it preyed on my own sense of fairness," Damon revealed. "There was this misconception that he wanted the attention and he said to me in the middle of it, 'This is the worst thing for my career.' He knew it was bad for him, which was just a testament about how he felt about that relationship."

Damon says life has been surreal since he set foot in Hollywood and it just might have reached its peak this summer when he spent a month in Europe with "Ocean's 12" cast mates George Clooney and Brad Pitt.

"I feel guilty half the time," Damon admitted. "I go to work a few days a week and I'm like, ‘Are you guys sure I can't do something? Can I carry anything?'"

See if Matt can carry "The Bourne Supremacy" to the top of the box office again when the film opens next week.
