Matt Damon

The clip, featuring a narration voiced by Damon from the film Air, was posted on Mr Trump's social media platform Truth Social.

The audio was used over footage of Trump as a young boy and as president.

But the studio said it did not consent to or endorse its usage for Mr Trump's political campaign.

The studio said: "Any use of material from Air by the Trump campaign where approval or consent is required, we do not grant such consent."

The Hollywood star told The Sunday Times his daughter had rebuked him for using what she called the "f-slur for a homosexual" in a joke "months ago".

In a follow-up statement, the Oscar winner stressed that he had never used the insult against anyone off screen.

"This conversation with my daughter was not a personal awakening," he said.

"I do not use slurs of any kind."

He told the newspaper it "was commonly used when I was a kid, with a different application".

Frances McDormand used her Oscars best actress acceptance speech to call on Hollywood to use the clauses.

Inclusion riders specify that women and people of minorities must be properly represented in the cast and crew.

Damon and Affleck's Pearl Street Films has produced features like Jason Bourne and Manchester By The Sea.

Their news comes after Black Panther Michael B Jordan announced that he would add an inclusion rider on all movies made by his Outlier Society production company.

The actor and writer is facing a backlash on social media for saying people should be paying more attention to men who are not sexual predators.

In an interview for Business Insider on Monday, Damon said men not involved in sexual misconduct in Hollywood are not gaining attention.

"We're in this watershed moment, and it's great, but I think one thing that's not being talked about is... the preponderance of men I've worked with who don't do this kind of thing," he said during an interview while promoting his new film Downsizing.

But it was his ongoing faux-feud with Matt Damon that was truly worthy of gold Sunday night.

Kimmel kicked off his night of Damon torment with a nod to the actor -- who has long been a playful target of Kimmel's -- in his monologue.

"Tonight in the spirit of bringing people together, I would like to bury the hatchet with someone I've had issues with -- Matt Damon," he said. "Now, Matt, I've known Matt for a long time. I've known Matt so long, when I first met Matt, I was the fat one."

The burn was just the beginning.

And he'll be the first to admit he's a little nervous about it.

"It's something I was hoping to be asked to do, but I didn't necessarily ever want to do it," Kimmel said with a laugh in an interview Tuesday. "I know all the baggage that comes along with it and the work that comes along with it, and also the criticism that inevitably also comes along with it."

"I wanted to do it but I've also feared doing it -- and I still fear doing it." he told CNN.

The format remains hugely popular in the country, particularly when it comes to action movies.

But the conversion process required to give the 2D-shot film an extra dimension seems to have been ill-judged in this case.

Why has China got a 3D Bourne?

Cinemas usually charge more for movies screened in three dimensions, so there's an obvious incentive to show them in the format.

Damon appeared in a "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" skit Monday night for another round of therapy. The stars have had a long-running feud because the late night host refuses to have Damon on the show as a guest.

"You invite me every day," The "Jason Bourne" star said. "You say I'm going to be on the show and I've never been on the show."

Kimmel's defense, as he builds a pillow wall to protect himself from Damon, is that he only has an hour and he simply runs out of time.

The actor has revealed in an interview with The Guardian that he only has about 25 lines of dialogue in the finished "Jason Bourne."

That has led to speculation that with Damon's past paydays he may have earned about $1 million per line for the latest in the "Bourne" franchise.
