Matt Damon: From Teen Heartthrob to Family Man

By

We Bought a Zoo star Matt Damon has grown up right before America's eyes, and with his latest film effort it seems the star's career is entering into another exciting phase.

Based on the book We Bought a Zoo: The Amazing True Story of a Young Family, a Broken Down Zoo and the 200 Zoo Animals that Changed Their Lives Forever by Benjamin Mee, We Bought a Zoo tells the true story of a single dad (Matt Damon) who decides his family needs a fresh start, so he and his two children move to the most unlikely of places -- a zoo. With the help of an eclectic staff, and with many misadventures along the way, the family works to return the dilapidated zoo to its former wonder and glory.
