Even as Jimmy Kimmel prepares to host the Academy Awards on Sunday, he still found time to deface a photo of his “archenemy” Matt Damon, who is one of the directors of the Oscar-nominated Manchester by the Sea.

Kimmel scribbled on the headshot of “best picture nominee” Damon with black ink, then posed for an Instagram photo showing off his handiwork—and a slight smirk.

“He’s my archenemy, really,” Kimmel said of the Cambridge native in an interview with Good Morning America earlier this week. “I mean, if the Joker and the Batman were face-to-face, there would be some kind of a standoff. And I would imagine that that will be the same for this.”
