Actor Matt Damon says Heath Ledger, whom he worked with on "The Brother's Grimm," was too good for this world.

The 45-year-old "Jason Bourne" star said after sharing screen space with Ledger he felt that he has worked with one of the best actors, reported People magazine.

He was too bright for this world. Coming off (The Brother's Grimm, I was) telling everybody that I just worked with the best actor I've ever seen.

"And people were like, 'What are you talking about? The guy from A Knight's Tale?' And I was like, 'You just wait. And wait until you see what kind of director he's gonna be.' There were things that he did where I couldn't have got there in three lifetimes," Damon said.
 

The actor also recalled the time he had Prince in the audience at "The Bourne Ultimatum" premiere in London.

"Prince said, 'I live inside my own heart, Matt Damon.'," he said.
