On the small screen, Damon played Scott Thorson in HBO's *Behind the Candelabra*, which garnered him an Emmy nomination. His guest appearances in *30 Rock* and hosting *Saturday Night Live* were also Emmy-nominated. Beyond acting, Damon has produced projects like *Project Greenlight* and *Manchester by the Sea*.
