Matt Damon revealed that a kissing scene with Scarlett Johansson in the film We Bought a Zoo was "hell" because Johansson had eaten an onion sandwich during lunch break, causing her breath to smell. Damon jokingly made fun of her breath but clarified that it actually smelled like roses. Damon and Johansson's kissing scene was part of a discussion about whether it's right to tell someone they have bad breath. Damon also shared that he regrets turning down the lead role in Avatar, which would have earned him around $250 million.
