Matt Damon, 53, sees the resemblance between himself and Jesse Plemons, 36.
"Sure, yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely."

Plemons was even cast as a younger version of Damon's character in the 2000 film 'All the Pretty Horses'. Though the then-preteen actor's scene was ultimately cut, the crew was freaking out about the resemblance when Plemons first came to set.

“Five people came up to me before I met him and said, ‘You’re not gonna believe how much this kid looks like you,' I couldn’t believe it. He looked more like me than I did when I was little. Like my little 11-year-old face did not look like it [was going to become me]. He looked exactly like me. I was like, 'This is really weird.'"

When they finally met, they took a picture together, which he wished he still had.

If anyone had ever tried to cast Plemons as his brother now that he's older, Damon said no.
