Actor Matt Damon only accepts acting offers that allow his family to join him but he is open to the idea of returning home every two weeks to see them.
The 45-year-old actor has made a pact with his wife Luciana Barroso and his kids that he'll never accept an acting job unless they can join him abroad, reported Female First.
"When making the movie, I always take them and go on a big family trip. Every decision to make a movie is really up for to the family. If it is going to be too disruptive, I just can't do it. Sometimes it is an adventure. Last year I went to China for six months and it was a big family trip and that was awesome," he said.
If the "Jason Bourne" star isn't allowed to tag his family along with him, he will only accept the role if it's guaranteed he can return home after two weeks of shooting.
"We try to not be apart for two weeks. We have this two week rule, but three weeks has been the longest we have ever been apart.
