Matt Damon seemingly still can't forgive himself for turning down one movie role that was initially offered to him. Well, he should be because it was the leading role in "Avatar", the most successful movie of all time, that he rejected.
Speaking to Playboy, "The Martian" actor said, "I particularly wanted to work with James Cameron, and still do… He knew he was the star of that movie and that everyone was going to see it anyway. When he said, 'Look, I'm offering it to you, but if you say no, the movie doesn't need you,' I remember thinking, 'Oh God, not only do I have to say no because of scheduling, but he's going to make a star out of some guy who's going to start taking jobs from me later."
