MATT DAMON (Chief Warrant Officer Roy Miller) has been honored for his work on both sides of the camera, including an Academy Award® for Best Original Screenplay and an Oscar® nomination for Best Actor.

Damon has a wide range of projects forthcoming. He recently filmed George Nolfi's thriller The Adjustment Bureau, opposite Emily Blunt, and reunited with director Clint Eastwood on the drama Hereafter, written by Peter Morgan. Damon will also film the Coen brothers' remake of the classic Western True Grit. His upcoming films also include the independent feature Margaret, directed by Kenneth Lonergan.

Damon most recently starred in Clint Eastwood's Invictus, opposite Morgan Freeman, for which Damon received Golden Globe, Critics' Choice and Screen Actors Guild award nominations. He also played the title role in The Informant!, which marked his fifth collaboration with Steven Soderbergh and for which Damon received another Golden Globe nomination. He previously teamed with the director as part of the all-star casts in the action comedies Ocean's Eleven, Ocean's Twelve and Ocean's Thirteen. Damon also had a cameo role in the second part of Soderbergh's two-part biopic Che.

For the small screen, Damon both executive produced and appeared in The People Speak, based on a book co-written by famed historian Howard Zinn and featuring dramatic readings and performances from some of the most famous names in the entertainment industry. It aired on the History Channel in December 2009.

In 2002, Damon originated the role of Jason Bourne in the blockbuster actioner The Bourne Identity. He went on to reprise his role in the two hit sequels, The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum, both directed by Paul Greengrass.

Damon's other recent film credits include Martin Scorsese's Oscar®-winning Best Picture The Departed, with Leonardo DiCaprio, Jack Nicholson and Mark Wahlberg; Robert De Niro's dramatic thriller The Good Shepherd, with De Niro and Angelina Jolie; and Stephen Gaghan's geopolitical thriller Syriana, with George Clooney.

Hailing from Boston, Damon attended Harvard University and gained his first acting experience with the American Repertory Theater. He made his feature film debut in Mystic Pizza, followed by roles in School Ties, Walter Hill's Geronimo: An American Legend and the cable projects Rising Son and Tommy Lee Jones' The Good Old Boys. He first gained attention with his portrayal of a guilt-ridden Gulf War veteran tormented by memories of a battlefield incident in 1996's Courage Under Fire.

Academy Award®-nominated actor GREG KINNEAR (Poundstone) continues to build upon his already impressive resume with roles in the most diverse of projects. His latest film work includes starring roles in the comedies Baby Mama, opposite Tina Fey, and Ghost Town, with Ricky Gervais, as well as the drama Flash of Genius, with Lauren Graham.

This April, Kinnear will star opposite Miley Cyrus in The Last Song. Based on best-selling novelist Nicholas Sparks' latest novel, The Last Song is set in a small Southern beach town where an estranged father tries to reconnect with his troubled teenage daughter through the only thing they have in common—music—in a story of family, friendship, secrets and salvation, along with first loves and second chances.

In Little Miss Sunshine, the critically acclaimed hit of the 2006 Sundance Film Festival, Kinnear played a struggling motivational coach who leads his family on an eventful road trip so that his seven-year-old daughter can realize her dream of competing in a beauty pageant. Lauded by critics nationwide, Little Miss Sunshine went on to receive several Academy Award® nominations and Film Independent's Spirit Awards, while Kinnear, along with Steve Carell, Alan Arkin, Abigail Breslin, Paul Dano and Toni Collette, won the Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture.

Kinnear segued from beauty pageants to the gridiron to star opposite Mark Wahlberg in the film Invincible, the real-life tale of Vince Papale, a 30-year-old bartender who goes to an open tryout of the Philadelphia Eagles organized by new coach Dick Vermeil (Kinnear). He then starred in Richard Linklater's Fast Food Nation, based on the best-selling book by Eric Schlosser.

In 1997, Kinnear starred alongside Jack Nicholson in James L. Brooks' Oscar®-nominated As Good as It Gets, and he received his own Academy Award® nomination for his portrayal of Nicholson's neighbor Simon. Kinnear also received Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild Award nominations for the performance, and the National Board of Review named him Best Supporting Actor. In 1995, Kinnear won an Emmy Award for E! Entertainment's Talk Soup.

Internationally acclaimed Dublin-born actor BRENDAN GLEESON's (Brown) latest project is The Guard, directed by John Michael McDonagh for Element Pictures. This production, co-starring Don Cheadle, was filmed in late 2009 in Ireland. Spring 2010 will see the release of Perrier's Bounty, directed by Ian Fitzgibbon for Parallel Film Productions.

Academy Award® nominee AMY RYAN (Lawrie Dayne) has made her mark working with some of today's most prolific directors, writers and actors. Whether in film, on television or on stage, Ryan continues to turn heads with chameleon-like character turns and compelling performances.

In October 2007, Ryan impressed audiences and critics alike, starring in Miramax's Gone Baby Gone as Helene McCready, a drug-addict mother from Boston's working-class Dorchester neighborhood, whose child is kidnapped. In this film directed by Ben Affleck, Ryan co-starred with Casey Affleck, Morgan Freeman and Ed Harris in what The New York Times called "a gutsy, sensational performance." Her sympathetic portrayal of an otherwise despicable character was recognized with Academy Award®, Golden Globe and SAG Award nominations in the Best Supporting Actress category. Additionally, she won Best Supporting Actress awards from the National Board of Review, the Broadcast Film Critics Association (Critics' Choice Awards), the New York Film Critics Circle, the Los Angeles Film Critics Association, the Boston Society of Film Critics, Washington, D.C. Area Film Critics Association and the San Francisco Film Critics Circle, among others.

In the fall of 2007, Ryan also appeared opposite Ethan Hawke in Before the Devil Knows You're Dead, directed by Sidney Lumet. Her work was recognized with Best Ensemble awards from IFP's Gotham Awards, the New York Film Critics Online and the Boston Society of Film Critics, and she was nominated for a BFCA Critics' Choice Award.

Following these two profoundly dramatic performances, Ryan opted for a lighter turn, guest starring in the season four finale of NBC's The Office. Showing off her comedic chops, Ryan was introduced to the group at Dunder Mifflin as Holly, the new head of human resources. Applauded by New York magazine for "raising the show's game" and given a "cheers" by TV Guide, she returned for several episodes in season five, in which sparks continued to fly between her and Michael (Steve Carell).

In October 2008, Ryan returned to the big screen in Clint Eastwood's Changeling, for Universal and Imagine Entertainment. Ryan starred opposite Angelina Jolie as a prostitute who is wrongly confined to a mental institution as revenge for speaking out against LAPD atrocities in 1920s Los Angeles.

Isaacs recently finished filming Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I and Part II, reprising the role of the Death Eater Lucius Malfoy after appearing in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. In July, he will be seen in the surreal black comedy Skeletons, starring as The Colonel.

In 2009, Isaacs executive produced and appeared alongside Viggo Mortensen as the doomed Jewish psychoanalyst Maurice, in an adaptation of the Nazi-era stage play Good, for which he was nominated for a Best Supporting Actor Award by the Critics' Circle. From 2006 to 2008, he starred as Irish-American gangster Michael Caffee in three seasons of the Peabody Award-winning hit Showtime series Brotherhood, for which he was nominated for a Satellite Award for Best Actor in a Series, Drama. In 2008, he starred as Harry H. Corbett in The Curse of Steptoe on the BBC, and was nominated for a Best Actor award at the BAFTAs. That year, he also guest-starred as Fredrick "Freddy" Lyme in the HBO series Entourage.

In 2006, Isaacs starred in three diverse roles: in the BBC's six-part conspiracy thriller The State Within as Sir Mark Brydon, the besieged British Ambassador to Washington, D.C., for which he received a Golden Globe Award nomination for Best Performance by an Actor in a Miniseries or a Motion Picture Made for Television; in the ensemble comedy Friends With Money, which premiered at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival, as Catherine Keener's patronizing husband David, alongside Jennifer Aniston, Joan Cusack and Frances McDormand; and in Channel 4 Television's critically lauded and disturbing film Scars, as the damaged and dangerous Chris. The film explored the birth of conscience via a series of monologues that were verbatim transcripts of a violent career criminal.

In 2005, Isaacs appeared in equally varied roles. He starred as the heartbreaking romantic Damian, reconnecting with his old love Robin Wright Penn, in Rodrigo García's award-winning Nine Lives (The New York Times "film moment of the year") and as the repressed suburban dad Mr. Parker in The Chumscrubber (both films premiered at the 2005 Sundance Film Festival). He also starred as the homophobic movie star Johnny Green in Donal Logue's independent comedy Tennis Anyone?. On television that year, he was the war-weary photojournalist Colin Ayers, romancing Donna (played by Janel Moloney) in a recurring role on NBC's The West Wing.
