LOS ANGELES — Matt Damon and Jude Law are reuniting on screen to star in a thriller by Oscar-winning director Steven Soderbergh about the outbreak of a deadly disease, reports said Tuesday.
Damon and Law, who appeared together in 1999 hit “The Talented Mr. Ripley,” have signed to star in the film while Oscar winners Marion Cotillard and Kate Winslet are in talks to join the project, Daily Variety reported.
The film — titled “Contagion” — is described as an action-thriller which will unfold with multiple plotlines similar to Soderbergh’s 2000 film “Traffic”, which earned him a best director Academy Award.
Damon was most recently seen in the Clint Eastwood-directed drama “Invictus,” and will star in the upcoming Iraq war action movie “Green Zone.”

Eastwood shoots scenes for new movie with Matt Damon in Crockett
31
January
2010
The Warner Bros. film “Hereafter” — a “supernatural thriller” — has locations shot in France, London, Maui and the Bay Area, including tiny Crockett in Contra Costa County.
The project this week drew a film crew with superstars Matt Damon and Bay Area native Clint Eastwood to the C&H Sugar refinery there. Eastwood is directing the movie.
The film company was able to keep everything pretty low-profile during the Jan. 19 visit, a tough task in such a close-knit community.
“It was very quiet,” said Dan Robertson, editor and publisher of the Crockett Signal. “They were only here a few hours, and nobody said anything.”
The only inkling came when a large number of trucks parked overnight Monday on Rolph Avenue outside the factory.
“It’s amazing how much equipment is involved in one day’s filming,” Robertson said.
Warner Bros. contacted the Crockett Chamber of Commerce in December and later asked for assistance in getting a county film production permit, chamber President Aimee Lohr said.
She said C&H and the production company asked the chamber to keep quiet about the shoot out of concern that it would attract an overwhelming number of people.
“It’s not every day they have something that big coming into town,” Lohr said. “It was exciting to know they were there.”
The company broke at midday to have lunch in the Scout Hall on Loring Avenue. While Eastwood stopped in at the hall, Damon
apparently dined elsewhere.The buzz around Sugar Town is that the refinery plays the role of a flour mill, where Damon’s character is employed as a forklift operator.
According to online sources, the film company came to the Bay Area from Maui on Tuesday; local shooting also was scheduled for Nob Hill in San Francisco and Emeryville. They depart today for London.
“Hereafter” is expected to be released around the Christmas holidays, according to imdb.com.

As I promised, I am working on rebuilding the gallery and I decided to start with the Bourne Ultimatium movie section.

I want to thank the amazing Vanessa @ Celebrity-Scans.Com for donating 500+ caps of the movie to us. It was VERY thoughtful of her to do it for everyone, which saves me so much time and effort. Thanks so much Vanessa!!

Matt Damon’s Australian invasion on board The World cruise ship

2009
HOLLYWOOD star Matt Damon looks to be headed to Sydney for New Year’s Eve on board one of the most luxurious private ocean liners on the planet.
After charming the locals at Batemans Bay this week, Damon (or a man who looked suspiciously like him) happily signed autographs for staff and customers at the Batehaven Fish Shop on Sunday, warmly responding and signing the megastar’s name before signing a petition to support a local delicacy – vodka dipping sauce. Yesterday came yet another sighting.
“He came in and we recognized him and he was after some prawns,” fish shop owner Bluey Hetherington told Confidential.
“He tried our vodka sauce and really liked it. We want to get the sauce into supermarkets and we have a book in the shop for people to sign and endorse it. We have names of people from all over the world.
“He wrote ‘Awesome – Matt Damon and daughter from the USA’ and I’ve laminated that page.”
Visitor Maureen French told Confidential she spotted Damon in Batemans Bay yesterday and he happily signed an autograph for her.
“He said he was here holidaying with his family and loving it – he was a really nice bloke,” Ms French said.
Damon, or his doppelganger, is one of 250 passengers and crew on the private cruise ship The World, which is made up of privately owned cabins, some of which are rented for between $1000 and $2000 a day.
It spent Sunday and Monday moored in Batemans Bay after arriving from Eden having first tailed the Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race out of Sydney. Late yesterday it was making it’s way back up the south coast headed to Sydney where it will arrive in Darling Harbour at 1pm on Thursday for the New Year’s Eve fireworks.
Damon, who has previously been to Australia to promote films, looks to have become a frequent albeit silent visitor to these shores.
This time last year Confidential took telephone calls concerning Damon hiring a house on the Northern Beaches.
