Matt Damon Uses Fairly Unoriginal Fake Name at London Hotel

Matt Damon might want to do some brainstorming about the fake names he uses when he checks into hotels.

Some gossip columnist in the UK is reporting that Damon checked into the May Fair Hotel under the name, Arthur Ripley. As in The Talented Mr. Ripley. Granted the character's name is Tom Ripley. But still, a little too close to home. And FYI: Arthur Ripley is a dead screenwriter. Also:

Matt told me in the hotel's cocktail bar: "I stay in a different hotel weekly when filming so that I don't get bored.

Let's hope he's not using other obvious names like Will Hunting or Jason Bourne in those places. We have a better, not-so-obvious one: Matt Silverman.
