Matt Damon has admitted to being envious of Jake Gyllenhaal’s newly shaved head. The Donnie Darko star adopted the bald look this summer, ready for a part in upcoming police drama End of Watch.

“Wow, I try not to envy, but I have to say Jake’s got a damn good-looking head,” Damon told People earlier this week.

“He sure does have a beautiful round head,” Damon continued. “Normally you say, ‘That’s a beautiful head of hair’, but that’s a beautiful head he’s got.”

Damon has shaved his own head ready for a role in Neill Blomkamp’s upcoming sci-fi thriller Elysium, which will also stars Jodie Foster.

“It’s really liberating,” Damon added, regarding his new hairstyle.
