Matt Damon got 'overwhelmed' with emotion and cried when he first returned to movie theaters.

The actor admitted he was overcome with feelings when he sat down with guests to preview his new film Stillwater at the Cannes Film Festival, his first screenings since the coronavirus pandemic began.

A video from inside the theatre showed him and the cast receiving a standing ovation for five minutes as he got emotional at seeing so many people packed into the theatre again.

And later asked by Variety what made him cry, he said: 'the feeling of being in a movie theatre again and how much I missed that, and why we do that'.
