Beliefnet’s video producer, Jen Kachler, landed her first on-camera interview with one of America’s biggest and favorite movie stars — Matt Damon.

Here in town to promote his new movie, “Hereafter,” Damon talked with Jen about his own thoughts about death, the afterlife and what inspires him.

Although he did not quite claim to know about what happens when this life is over, he said he hopes that what we do here during our life time does make a difference.

What inspires him? “Working with Clint Eastwood.”  Matt told Jen that at 40, he loves his work and hopes he is as excited about it as actor/director Eastwood is at 80.

Jen also interviewed Bryce Dallas Howard and Cecile de France. Photos below.
