10 Tiny Details Actors Requested For Movies
6. Matt Damon Requested His Cowboy Hat Have A Belt Buckle Spelling The Letter "B" - True Grit
Not one to be outdone by his pal Ben Affleck, Matt Damon also made a baseball-related wardrobe request on the set of the Coen brothers' western remake True Grit.
Damon, who played Texas Ranger LaBoeuf in the film, made arrangements for the belt buckle on his cowboy hat to resemble the letter B, in tribute to his favourite baseball team, the Boston Red Sox.
Given that the Red Sox's baseball cap bears the letter B prominently on the front, it's a pretty direct tribute, albeit ingeniously slipped into such a card-carrying period movie.
Damon reportedly tries to include references to the Red Sox in as many of his movies as possible, but he'll struggle to top this level of inspired sneakery.
