It looks as if Matt Damon’s return to Ireland isn’t far off as he reveals a promise he made to his kids before leaving the country.
Damon and his family spent three months living out in Dalkey, after opting to stay here when filming for The Last Duel was called off due to Covid.
The Hollywood actor was welcomed just like any other local in the seaside town, and was often spotted around the place on hikes, at the local shops and heading for coffee.
He told Marc Macron’s WTF podcast earlier this week that he considered moving to Ireland after their stay, and now he has revealed a promise he made to his kids before their departure.
Speaking during his appearance on The One Show he said he made a deal with his kids, Alexia, Isabella, Gia, and Stella, to return to Ireland.
He said, "We did the first lockdown in Ireland because that's where I was shooting The Last Dual when we got shut down.
"We had this whole plan to caravan around Ireland and we couldn't do it.
"So we went and locked down and then we went back and shot six months later and entered another lockdown right at the end of production.
"So I have a deal with my kids that when we get through this Covid stuff we're going to go back and get a caravan and go see Ireland."
