Matthews ability to spot and work with talent has allowed him to discover, and was significant in advancing the careers of James Gandolfini and Philip Seymour Hoffman (Money For Nothing), Ryan Phillipe, Steve Zahn and James LeSure (Crimson Tide), Don Cheadle (Devil in a Blue Dress), Dave Chappelle and Monica Potter (Con Air), Lucy Liu (Shanghai Noon), Dakota Fanning (Tomcats), Roselyn Sanchez (Rush Hour 2) Rachel McAdams (The Notebook), Katt Williams (Friday After Next), Amanda Seyfried, Oliva Wilde, Ben Foster, Anton Yelchin (“Alpha Dog”) among others.
