It’s common knowledge (as judged by the millions of rehashes this joke got on Twitter) that Matt Damon has cost the world millions in rescue missions; from Saving Private Ryan, Interstellar and The Martian, the dude is a consistent drain on (fictional) resources.
So it’s nice to see that fans of the actor/pretend astronaut have decided to help the government save a few bucks, by setting up a GoFundMe page to rescue Damon from Mars.
Damon currently stars in Ridley Scott Mars-set adventure The Martian, playing a middling astronaut abandoned on Mars. Apparently Damon’s performance was very convincing, as Kyle Douglas M has created a GoFundMe so concerned movie fans can donate to have the actor rescued from the desolate planet.
“One of the greatest actors in Hollywood is currently trapped on Mars after a failed exploration. We need Matt back on earth because he is due to be in another “Bourne” movie. Matt is also a loyal friend to another Hollywood great Ben Affleck who needs Matt Damon’s support as he goes through a divorce. Failing to bring Matt back could be devastating to our American life and will have a devastating impact on film if we don’t rescue Matt. #bringhomeMatt.”
So far, $10 of the required $99 million has been donated - if you want to help the cause, jump over to [link]gofundme.com/h55vhess[/link].
