Michael Douglas has revealed that kissing his co-star Matt Damon in the movie 'Behind The Candelabra' "wasn't at all uncomfortable".

The 69-year-old American actor said that kissing the 43-year old in their forthcoming movie about Liberace's long-term relationship with Scott Thorson wasn't ever going to affect their rapport as they share a "comfort factor", the Daily Express reported.

The duo also had to portray several different looks in order to impersonate the couple's five-year relationship.

The 'Basic Instinct' star had also extended a special thanks to the 'Saving Private Ryan' actor in his Emmy Award accepted speech saying that Damon "deserved half of this" as he was the reason he received the award, while pointing to the statuette.
