Matt Damon and Michael Douglas The "Adjustment Bureau" star will play the lover of Michael's flamboyant gay pianist Liberace in the biopic of the same name and Matt is delighted the script calls for more than one smooch between the pair.

He told E!: "It's scripted that there's more than one. I never thought I would get to kiss Michael Douglas!"

Michael - who revealed in January he is in remission for stage four throat cancer - is equally enthusiastic about the project and revealed he had been teasing Matt about their love scenes.

He said: "I'm just going to get really comfortable so it's not a caricature. Matt Damon's going to be my younger lover. God bless Matt."

"I saw Matt and I was teasing him. I was saying, 'Bring a lot of ChapStick, babe.'"

The film will be helmed by Steven Soderbergh - who recently announced his retirement from directing - and Matt doesn't think he will reconsider his decision.

He explained: "I've had a lot of conversations with him about it and he is serious about it. He says that this is last one he's going to do."

Matt Damon Puts Family Before Work

MATT DAMON PUTS FAMILY BEFORE WORK
Matt Damon would never put work before his family.

The 40-year-old actor - who raises 12-year-old stepdaughter Alexia and daughters Isabella, four, Gia, two, and four-month-old Stella with spouse Luciana - believes it is possible to strike the right balance between personal and professional commitments.

He said: "I try to have my cake and eat it. On the one hand, I'm most excited and alive when I'm working on something I love. But not to the detriment of my family."

"Clint Eastwood will shoot a 10-hour day, which is the regular hours parents go to work. It's a great creative experience and then I'm home with my kids."

Matt - who has been directed by Clint in "Hereafter" and "Invictus" - also revealed he takes longer to prepare for movie roles these days because he hates having to diet beforehand.

He explained to Britain's Glamour magazine: "I exercise better than I used to. I have trouble cutting out all the food I like, so I start getting ready for movies by preparing earlier."

"I could eat a 10-course meal every night if you let me."
