Matt Damon is looking sexy on the new cover of GQ, but he's sporting an old 'do. The We Bought a Zoo star has shaved his head since the GQ shoot, making this cover even more exciting.

Matt's interview, however, is causing a bit of controversy. The Jason Bourne star sounds off on just how bad he felt the script was for 2007's The Bourne Ultimatum.

Matt tells GQ that screenwriter Tony Gilroy had a deal with Universal that he only had to write one draft.

"It's really the studio’s fault for putting themselves in that position," Matt says. "I don't blame Tony for taking a boatload of money and handing in what he handed in. It’s just that it was unreadable. This is a career-ender. I mean, I could put this thing up on eBay and it would be 'Game Over' for that dude. It's terrible. It's really embarrassing. He was having a go, basically, and he took his money and left."

However, Matt has already apologized for his remarks about Tony.

"If I didn't respect him and appreciate his talent, then I really wouldn't have cared," Matt said (via The Hollywood Reporter). "My feelings were hurt. That's all. And that's exactly why I shouldn’t have said anything. This is between me and him. So saying anything publicly is f***ing stupid and unprofessional and just kind of d****ey of me."

Tony is directing the fourth Bourne film with Jeremy Renner in the lead role. While Matt may not have been happy with The Bourne Ultimatum, he isn't against starring in another Bourne movie and hopes Jeremy's film does well.

"Selfishly, it’s bad for me if that movie doesn't do well."
