Hollywood star looks unrecognisable with bushy beard and baseball cap at basketball game in Los Angeles

The famous Hollywood actor traded his clean-cut look for a shaggy beard on Sunday as he took his family to a star-studded NBA game at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.

The 54-year-old joined a host of famous faces who watched the Los Angeles Lakers play the Portland Trail Blazers, including fellow movie star Don Cheadle.

He looked very different from his typical polished red carpet appearance as he relaxed during a fun day out with his wife Luciana and their youngest daughters Gia, 16, and Stella, 14.

The Mars star sported a scruffy beard and black-framed glasses, while he wore a casual plaid flannel shirt and hid his handsome face under a baseball cap.

Don, 60, looked effortlessly cool in a black bomber jacket and jeans, with a cream baseball cap and a gold pendant necklace.

Other celebrities who were in the stadium to watch the Lakers take the win over the Trail Blazers by a score of 107-98 included New Girl star Max Greenfield and Adele’s sports agent fiance Rich Paul.

Can you guess who it is? That’s right, it’s Matt Damon.

Matt’s scruffy look appears to be for his upcoming Netflix film, RIP, which he stars in and produces alongside his BFF Ben Affleck.

The crime thriller follows a group of Miami police officers who discover a stash of millions in cash, causing friction when outsiders learn of the massive seizure, leaving them to wonder who they can trust.

Matt and Ben were spotted laughing while filming scenes for the movie in Los Angeles last month, and the Good Will Hunting duo are producing the film through their Artists Equity production company, which they launched in November 2022.

Matt’s outing with Luciana and their daughters comes after he revealed that their family dynamic has changed since their 18-year-old daughter Isabella moved away and went to college.

The Oscar winner and his wife are the proud parents of daughters Isabella, Gia and Stella, while he is also father to daughter Alexia, 26, from a previous relationship.

Speak with E! News about the family adjustment after Isabella left for college in September, Matt explained, “We have a 26-year-old [Alexia]so we’ve been through this before, but it’s still a big adjustment for us and her sisters.

‘It’s a different household, with one less person. So it’s a big adjustment.’

Previously, he spoke candidly about what it means to be a girl dad during an appearance SiriusXM show Radio Andy in August.

When asked what his best advice is as a father of four girls, Matt admitted, “Oh man, I don’t know. I wouldn’t deign to give anyone advice, other than trying to listen and be helpful.

“I mean, at the end of the day it’s about building self-esteem. You know you won’t be there for 99% of the decisions they make, right?’

Host Andy Cohen then asked, “What kind of dad are you when they bring home a boy and say, ‘I’m dating this…'”

Matt replied, “Oh, I’m fine. I’m cool with that. You know what I mean?’

Andy probed further, asking if the famous Boston native isn’t going “all Boston” on his daughters’ potential partners.

But Matt assured, “No, no, no. That’s an old trope that I think people like to play. You know fathers like to joke about it among themselves, I think sometimes, but no.’

The talented Mr. Ripley star added that eldest daughter Alexia has an “incredible” boyfriend who he and Luciana “adore.”

He said, “At least you know ours [26-year-old] You know, she has a great boyfriend that Lucy and I adore. We love that man and to see her make these kinds of choices is as good as it gets.”

Matt and his wife Luciana met in April 2003 in Miami at a bar where she worked while he was in town working on the comedy Stuck on You and were married on December 9, 2025 (pictured in May)

Matt and his wife Luciana met in April 2003 in Miami at a bar where she worked while he was in town working on the comedy Stuck on You.

During an interview with Vogue Australia in 2018, Luciana spoke about the moment the couple first met, joking: ‘Matt’s story is that he saw me across the room and a light shone on me. And I thought, “Yes, it was a nightclub – there were lights everywhere!”

Luciana remembered people recognizing him and asking for photos and autographs, so Matt took shelter behind the bar.

She explained: ‘It got a bit aggressive because people were drinking and stuff. He came and hid behind the bar… [wanting to] just hang out there and have a drink. He says, “Oh, I saw you and I really wanted to talk to you.”

But she told him that if he wanted to stay behind the counter he had to help out, saying: ‘He had trained as a bartender for a film years ago, so he started making drinks.

‘And he made a lot of money that night in tips, because of course everyone wanted to see him. So it was a very nice evening and fifteen years later we are here.’

Matt then popped the question to Luciana in September 2005 and just a few months later they tied the knot at the Manhattan Marriage Bureau on December 9.
