Matt Damon thinks the men in Hollywood who aren't sexual predators should be talked about more.
In the flood of sexual misconduct allegations that has hit Hollywood since Harvey Weinstein, some of the biggest names in entertainment, media, and politics have been taken down by their alleged acts. But Damon says not all the men in Hollywood are despicable.
"We're in this watershed moment and it's great but I think one thing that's not being talked about is there are loads of guys ? the preponderance of men I've worked with ? who don't do this kind of thing and whose lives aren't going to be affected," Damon told Business Insider while promoting his new movie, "Downsizing" (opening in theaters Friday). "If I have to sign a sexual harassment thing, I don't care, I'll sign it. I would have signed it before. I don't do that and most of the people I know don't do that."
Damon has recently been under fire for comments he made regarding sexual misconduct in Hollywood. Late last week in an interview for ABC News' "Popcorn with Peter Travers," Damon told the Rolling Stone critic that there's a "spectrum of behavior" to consider.
"There's a difference between, you know, patting someone on the butt and rape or child molestation, right?" Damon said. "Both of those behaviors need to be confronted and eradicated without question, but they shouldn't be conflated, right?"
