Matt Damon barely recognizable in heartwarming…
A household assembly Goofy at Disneyland bought an sudden shock when they realized an A-list actor had been watching the lovable interplay from just a few ft away: Matt Damon.
Loryn Powell posted the sudden celeb sighting on Instagram Friday after capturing what was supposed to be a particular household second: her younger daughter’s first encounter with Goofy at Goofy’s Kitchen in the Disneyland Hotel in Anaheim.

The video reveals Powell’s husband crouching next to their daughter as Goofy, carrying his chef uniform, comes over to greet them. The lady excitedly waves at the character before wrapping her arms around him.
What the household apparently didn’t discover was the well-known face standing just behind them.
Matt Damon may be noticed a short distance away, casually watching the meet-and-greet with his arms folded and grinning as the lady embraces Goofy.
“POV you’re watching your husband and daughter meet Goofy for the first time but don’t realize Matt Damon is also watching your husband and daughter meet Goofy for the first time,” Powell wrote over the video.
“When your daughter is more starstruck by Goofy than Matt Damon,” she joked in the caption.
“As you can tell we love dressing up for a good theme so taking our 2.5 year old daughter to Disneyland for her first time was magical,” Powell told The California Post. “Even if Matt Damon hadn’t been there,” she added.

It didn’t take long for people online to discover the Hollywood star lurking in the background. While some commenters puzzled whether or not it was actually Damon, others noticed a doable giveaway: the hat he was carrying appeared to say Artists Equity, the manufacturing company he launched with longtime pal Ben Affleck.
Damon was visiting Disneyland around the same time for a celebration of his own.

Photos from the outing confirmed the group sporting matching “Birthday Crew” shirts and gathering for a image in entrance of the outsized Mickey Mouse pumpkin on Main Street, U.S.A.
Whether Powell captured her video during that same Disneyland outing was not immediately clear.
