Matt Damon doesn’t “turn all Boston” when it comes to his daughters dating.

The “Good Will Hunting” actor insisted on “Radio Andy” Thursday that he is “fine” and “cool with” his and his wife Luciana Damon’s four daughters “bring[ing] boys home.”

Matt, 53, noted that trying to intimidate your kids’s partners is “an old trope that people like to play up.”

He added, “Dads like to joke about it amongst each other I think sometimes, but no. … [Alexia] has got this incredible boyfriend who Lucy and I just love. We adore the guy.”

The Oscar winner gushed that seeing the 24-year-old “making those kinds of choices [is] as good as it gets.”

Matt, who became Alexia’s stepdad when he married Luciana, 48, in 2005, is also the father of daughters Isabella, 18, Gia, 15, and Stella, 13.

When host Andy Cohen asked the Golden Globe winner for words of wisdom on being a girl dad, Matt replied that he “wouldn’t deign to give anybody advice.”

However, he said, “I just try to listen and be helpful. I mean, ultimately, it’s about building self-esteem. Like, 99 percent of the decisions they make, you’re not gonna be there, right?”

While the “Bourne Identity” star and Luciana have primarily kept their children out of the spotlight, the siblings have made headlines for red carpet appearances in recent years.

Last year, the girls attended premieres for “Oppenheimer” and “Air.”

Most recently, Alexia, Isabella, Stella and Gia were all present to help Matt and Luciana celebrate the release of “The Investigators” Wednesday.

The Emmy nominee praised his wife at the time for her work helping him produce the film.

“She’s been reading every script and watching every cut of every movie for 21 years,” he explained to “Entertainment Tonight.” “This is the first time we ever kind of codified it.”

Luciana, who was previously married to Arbello Barroso, was working in Miami as a bartender when she and Matt met and fell in love.

Although the pair initially married in a private civil ceremony, they went all out for their St. Lucia vow renewal eight years later.
