They round up the red carpet action at glamorous Hollywood premieres. But Matt Damon and his movie mates Brad Pitt, 43, and George Clooney, 46, enjoy ordinary guy stuff away from the cameras. And Matt, 36, feels just as close to his Hollywood pals as his childhood chums. 'Now those guys are kindred spirits,' he tells Live magazine. 'Having a beer with those two is exactly like having a drink with guys I grew up with.
'It's just like any other group – cards, pool, a few beers. 'If an alien came down and saw George and Brad in a room with 10 other guys, they would not be able to point out the movie stars based on how they were behaving.'
