Matt Damon Apologizes For His Comments About Diversity In Film (STATEMENT)

Matt Damon has released a statement, in which he apologizes for the controversial claims he made on "Project Greenlight" about diversity in film. 






"I believe deeply that there need to be more diverse filmmakers making movies. I love making movies. It's what I have chosen to do with my life and I want every young person watching "Project Greenlight" to believe that filmmaking is a viable form of creative expression for them too," Damon, 44, revealed.

"My comments were part of a much broader conversation about diversity in Hollywood and the fundamental nature of "Project Greenlight" which did not make the show. I am sorry that they offended some people, but, at the very least, I am happy that they started a conversation about diversity in Hollywood. That is an ongoing conversation that we all should be having," the actor added.
