Who played the main role of ex-President Matt Douglas in the film "My Fellow Americans"?

"My Fellow Americans" is a 1996 American comedy film directed by Peter Segal. It stars Jack Lemmon and James Garner as feuding ex-presidents, with Dan Aykroyd, Lauren Bacall, Esther Rolle, John Heard, Wilford Brimley, Bradley Whitford and Jeff Yagher in supporting roles. The film is named after the sentence for the traditional opening of presidential addresses to the American people.

Ex-presidents Russell Krame (Lemmon, Republican penny pincher) and Matt Douglas (Garner, Democratic arse-pincher) team up to clear their names and fight corruption at the White House. Framed in the blink of an eye, the old-timers reluctantly join forces and set out to uncover the truth while fleeing for their lives across white-trash America.

He made several television commercials before making his film debut in 1956, appearing in Mervyn LeRoy’s "Toward the Unknown" and the comedy "The Girl He Left Behind". In 1957 he acted opposite Marlon Brando in the war drama "Sayonara".

He received his first Academy Award nomination, for his performance as a pharmacist who befriends a divorcée (played by Sally Field) in the romantic comedy "Murphy’s Romance" (1985).
