Watch Matt Damon Crash ‘Kimmel’ in a Literal Trojan Horse

Matt Damon arrived on Jimmy Kimmel Live! in a literal Trojan horse on December 11, 2023, continuing their long-standing comedic feud. The stunt involved Damon emerging from the large wooden horse, which was wheeled onto the stage, to confront Kimmel. This appearance marked a continuation of a feud that began in 2006 when Kimmel, then host of The Man Show, reportedly cut Damon's segment from Jimmy Kimmel Live! due to time constraints. Damon has since made numerous appearances on the show, often as a surprise guest or in skits designed to mock Kimmel. The Trojan horse gag was a physical manifestation of Damon's persistent efforts to gain screen time on Kimmel's show, playing on the ancient Greek story of the Trojan War where a wooden horse was used to infiltrate the city of Troy. The segment generated significant social media buzz, with fans of the show appreciating the elaborate and humorous nature of Damon's entrance.
