US TV show Saturday Night Live has taken aim at Brett Kavanaugh, hiring actor Matt Damon to play an angry parody of the US Supreme Court nominee in its season opening show.

Mr Damon opens the 13-minute segment by ranting as an angry Mr Kavanaugh.

"I'm going to start at an 11. I'm going to take it to about a 15 real quick," Damon remarks.

Damon closes the segment by 'shotgunning' a can of water, and intoducing the show.

Mr Kavanaugh and Christine Blasey Ford appeared before a Senate Judiciary Committee last week to testify over claims Judge Kavanaugh sexually assaulted Ms Ford in 1982.

Mr Kavanaugh strongly denies the allegations.
