Hollywood actor Matt Damon crossed paths with Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson during a Harvard drama class. 

Jackson claimed that she and the Oscar winner were paired as scene partners during a course at the prestigious Ivy League university. 

"He’s not going to remember this, of course, but… for ‘Waiting for Godot,’" Jackson shared with "CBS Sunday Morning."

"The reason why I remember it is because he was already kind of well-known around campus and off campus, so it was kind of exciting to be his scene partner for a particular class."

The "Bourne Identity" actor was a year ahead of Jackson, she added. Jackson recalled that she and Damon memorized the scene from Samuel Beckett's absurdist play.

"At the end, the professor said, ‘Ketanji, you were very good. Matt, we’ll talk.' I was like, ‘Oh my God, I was better than Matt Damon in a scene!"

In 2022, a rep for Damon said the actor did not remember working with Jackson at Harvard but was still excited about the story. 

"That’s so cool!" Damon told The Associated Press at the time. That same year, Jackson was sworn in as the country’s first Black female justice.
