Matt Damon has revealed that he turned down the lead role in James Cameron’s Avatar in a decision that cost him millions.
During a recent interview with GQ, the actor admitted that he lost out on a small fortune after not taking the part of Jake Sully, a role which ultimately went to Clash of the Titans star Sam Worthington, who is set to return for the forthcoming sequels.
