So for that I am really sorry.”
Regarding Time's Up, he added: “A lot of those women are my dear friends and I love them and respect them and support what they’re doing and want to be a part of that change...but I should get in the back seat and close my mouth for a while.”
Damon first came under scrutiny when it appeared that he had been complicit in Harvey Weinstein's years of assault and silencing – he subsequently denied knowing anything. He spoke at length to ABC News after allegations surfaced against Louis C.K., highlighting the personal damage to accused men's careers. In December, Damon spoke about signing "a sexual harassment thing," and about men who "don't do this kind of thing," which is hardly the focus of Time's Up and the current movement.
After many floundering attempts, Damon seems to be getting the message, and focusing on his charity work in conjunction with the upcoming Superbowl.
