Charlize Theron swooned over Matt Damon\u2019s \u201cincredible\u201d physique in a gushing interview about her \u201cOdyssey\u201d co-star.<\/p>\n

When an \u201cEntertainment Tonight\u201d reporter pointed out<\/a> \u201cthe shape\u201d the actor is in at the film\u2019s recent world premiere in London<\/a>, she pointed out, \u201cI made this movie with him. \u2026 I\u2019ve seen him without all of that suit on.\u201d<\/p>\n

The actress, 50, gazed into the distance before confessing, \u201cIt\u2019s weird. I\u2019m, like, staring at him weirdly. I\u2019m looking at his ass.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Oscar winner jokingly reprimanded herself and admitted she \u201cshouldn\u2019t do that\u201d since \u201cthat\u2019s just wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, she subsequently doubled down on how \u201camazing\u201d the 55-year-old actor looks.<\/p>\n

Theron and Damon, respectively, play Calypso and Odysseus in the Christopher Nolan-directed blockbuster, which came out Friday.<\/p>\n

The duo have worked together before, co-starring in \u201cThe Legend of Bagger Vance\u201d with Will Smith in 2000.<\/p>\n

Reuniting on set was \u201csentimental,\u201d Theron told \u201cToday\u201d show viewers<\/a> earlier this month.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe did the first take, and I just went, \u2018Oh my God, we did this when we were babies, and here we are, two old humans,’\u201d she recalled during the July 13 interview.<\/p>\n

\u201c[He\u2019s] just one of my favorite people,\u201d the Golden Globe winner added. \u201cIt\u2019s rare that you get to do something like that, you know, to experience the same experience, like 30 years later, and with someone as great and as wonderful.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the time, Theron continued, \u201cHe\u2019s just good people. He\u2019s lovely people to be around, and we\u2019re all so happy for him that he got this opportunity [to play the titular role]. A better man couldn\u2019t have gotten it.\u201d<\/p>\n

When the pair filmed \u201cThe Legend of Bagger Vance,\u201d Damon had yet to meet his now-wife, Luciana Barroso, in Miami.<\/p>\n

Damon started dating<\/a> the then-bartender in 2003, with the \u201cMartian\u201d star popping the question two years later.<\/p>\n

He and Barroso, 49, walked down the aisle in December 2005 in New York City and have since welcomed three daughters<\/a> \u2014 Isabella, 20, Gia, 17, and Stella, 15.<\/p>\n

Damon, who also adopted his partner\u2019s daughter Alexia, 27, from a previous romance, told People last week that family dinners are a \u201cnon-negotiable\u201d<\/a> in their home.<\/p>\n

Theron, for her part, has adopted two children<\/a> \u2014 Jackson and August \u2014 whom she raises as a single mom.<\/p>\n

Her star-studded dating history<\/a> includes Third Eye Blind singer Stephan Jenkins, \u201cTrapped\u201d co-star Stuart Townsend and actor Sean Penn.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
