Got Matt Damon today.

ADDRESS NO LONGER VALID.

Date Sent: May 7, 2008
Date Received: July 25, 2008

Address Used: (April 29-June 29, 2008)

Matt Damon
The Informant
c/o Spooky Stevens
4000 Warner Blvd., Bldg. 133,
Ste. 105,
Burbank, CA 91522
USA

I sent a LOR, SASE, and 2-8x10 CPs.

I got back both photos personalized! I had read that Mr. Damon is an excellent VV signer. I wonder why so many people are sending to his agency and getting APs when they could send to him VV and get an authentic.

I have compared this to a known authentic from a source I trust and it matches. Even the inscription matches, it is written by the same person. The movie was shot in CA and this came back from Seattle. The two addresses in the database are for CA.

This makes up for my Will Ferrell loss, :cry: BUT I still want Will Ferrell!

Wow! Great success! I didn't realize he was so nice to sign VV!
I agree about getting them vv if they aren't authentic through an agency, however, you have to time it just so. Sometimes I still go for the ap/pp to have until I can send for an authentic (if it is their own pic) as it is still nice to have until you can get better!
Congratulations!

Nice success!! That is AWESOME!

Where did you find the address? I don't remember seeing it on this site. I tried him VV the "Green Zone" (the movie he filmed before this one) but never heard back.

Sometimes I will look on the net for this kind of info, I think I may have found it in Variety.

Did you call the production company before you mailed your request to make sure they passed along fan mail, AND to confirm the address? Most production companies do pass along fan mail, but some don't! You have to call them to make sure they do.

Also, more than once I went to confirm an address, reading it out to them, and they told me it wasn't correct, and they gave me the slight corrections.

That is what I did for this address. I made sure they forwarded and confirmed the address was correct. I even asked if I needed to address that to someone in particular in the office to make sure it got to him, and they were extremely helpful! I had honestly thought I wasn't going to hear back, considering it wrapped on June 29. But there have been people that have received replies from celebs a couple of months after a movie wraps.

I know when I called about a Ray Liotta film that the first two production companies said no, then the third had an aswering machine, so I went to that state's Film Office and asked them if they'd forward, and they said yes. It is now left up to the actor to reply.

Sorry you didn't hear back. I can only think you were unlucky enough to get one of those few production companies that didn't pass along fan mail.

Great success!! He is such an amazing actor. Looks authentic to me because it nearly matches with my IP auto from him! Congratz.
