Matt Damon’s new ‘Bourne’ costar says he’s the nicest guy in Hollywood
Jimmy Fallon seemed a little jealous.

With Jason Bourne set to hit theaters in exactly one week, Alicia Vikander (whom you may recognize from her Oscar-winning performance in The Danish Girl or her Golden Globe-nominated performance in Ex Machina) stopped by The Tonight Show to talk about her role in the film and how awesome her costar Matt Damon is.
“Ever since I came to America and started to do English-speaking films, he’s the one where everybody’s like, ‘Matt Damon, he’s probably the most nice guy in the industry’,” Vikander said. “And he is. Every guy that I meet just wants to be his best friend.”
“There are other nice people in the industry,” Fallon joked, pretending to be hurt by his exclusion from the fictional nice list. “You don’t have to name names.”
Considering that Vikander has recently worked with seemingly nice actors Domhnall Gleeson, Oscar Isaac, and Eddie Redmayne, her words about Damon are hardly faint praise.
When Fallon asked Vikander if Damon had offered her any advice about her early critical success — both actors won Oscars while in their 20s — she kept it simple.
“Have fun,” Vikander said.
