He became independent in 2024 for individual activities, remaining with the agency until the end of activities of the group, on May 31, 2026. Best known to Japanese television drama audiences for his portrayal as Tsukasa Dōmyōji in the 2005 television drama series Boys Over Flowers, for which he won GQ Japan's Man of the Year Award under the singer/actor category for his work in the drama, prior to his debut as a singer with Arashi in 1999, Matsumoto started an acting career when he was cast as Teddy Duchamp for the stage play Stand by Me, which was based on the film of the same name. Since then, he has gone on to appear in numerous dramas and movies, receiving a number of awards and nominations for his roles. With the end of activities of his group in May 2026, Matsumoto plans on concentrating on his acting career.

Matsumoto was born in Toshima, Tokyo, as the youngest child in his family. When he was born, the kanji candidate for his name was '純', but his grandmother said '潤' was better. He has an older sister whose support of KinKi Kids influenced his decision to join Johnny & Associates in 1996. Thinking it might bode good luck, he sent his application to the agency on his elementary school graduation day and received a phone call weeks later from president Johnny Kitagawa himself, inviting him to attend a rehearsal instead of being auditioned. Due to this, Matsumoto is frequently referred to as one of the elite within the agency. Matsumoto graduated from Horikoshi Gakuen, a renowned high school known for its many performing arts alumnae such as Kyoko Fukada and Ai Kato, in March 2002 at the age of.

Matsumoto announced in October 2023 on a fan club video the release of a photo book to celebrate his turning 40. The book included the account of his experience portraying Ieyasu Tokugawa. The book was released in December 2023. On May 31, 2024, the "Oricon First Half 'Book' Ranking" was announced. In the "Men's Photo Books" genre, Matsumoto's book ranked 2nd, after accumulating 66000 units sold in the period. As with fellow member Kazunari Ninomiya, Matsumoto announced on May 16, 2024, that he would become independent from Starto in relation to individual activities, but would remain as part of Arashi. Matsumoto left on May 30. On June 1, Matsumoto updated his Instagram account, posting information about his new company, MJC Inc., and giving its website. On the opening page of the website, Matsumoto states the plans of the company: "We focus on creativity and bonding to generate new value, aiming to lead Japan and the world to a brighter future through entertainment." He is named as "Chief Entertainment Officer". On December 3, 2024, Matsumoto announced through MJC that he had signed an agent contract with Eternal Moments Inc. for his individual activities, keeping the original site for contracts related to planning, producing and directing.

Still part of the Johnny and Associates trainees, Matsumoto was paired with future co–members Masaki Aiba and Kazunari Ninomiya, and Toma Ikuta as the unit "MAIN", the name made with the inicials of each one of the members. As part of MAIN, Matsumoto appeared in the stageplay "Stand By Me", based on the movie of the same name. Even as part of the "elite" of the agency, Matsumoto was teased as a youngster for his へたれ (weakling) appearance. As part of Arashi, on their 2001 program Mayonaka no Arashi in a corner named "Weakling Matsumoto gets hit by a waterfall", Matsumoto underwent training for takigyô, a social–religious ritual originally practiced by Buddhist monks and Shinto priests, which consists in a sort of guided meditation taken under a waterfall with the purpose of strengthening the body and mind.

Although the majority of Matsumoto's solos for albums and concerts are written by Arashi's staff, he has contributed lyrics for some of his solos: "La Familia" for the 2004 Arashi! Iza, Now Tour!!, "Naked" in 2008 for the album Dream "A" Live (under the pen name "Jun"), and "Stay Gold" in 2014 for the album The Digitalian. He also supervised the song "DRIVE" in 2016 for the album Are You Happy? and took part in writing lyrics with other Arashi members as Arashi for their songs "Fight Song", "Energy Song - Zekkōchō Chō!!!!", "5×10", and "5×20".

Matsumoto began to be involved in concert production in 2000. Although he primarily focused on Arashi concerts, he also gave advice on concert production to younger Johnny & Associates groups, such as for Hey! Say! JUMP in 2014 and King & Prince in 2018; and in 2021 he was director for the Year-End Johnny's Festival Thank you 2021 Hello 2022 concert, featuring many different groups from Johnny & Associates. He is officially credited as the director in the closing credits for the concerts Arashi Anniversary Tour 5×20 and Arafes 2020, as well as on the official website of Johnny's Festival Thank you 2021 Hello 2022 for the concert of the same name. He was named director of Starto Entertainment's April 2024 all-agency live. The concert series, named "We Are!! Let's get the party STARTO!!", was co-directed by Matsumoto and Super Eight's Tadayoshi Okura, and would become the last event produced by Matsumoto before his independence from Starto. As a concert producer, Matsumoto had also been conceptualizing new ideas. In 2005, he, along with the concert staff team, implemented the usage of the moving stage, which has been subsequently used by several Asian musical acts. 3 years prior to Arashi Live Tour 2014 The Digitalian, Matsumoto had been putting efforts into the idea of utilizing light color changes via bluetooth onto penlights, and the concept was successfully implemented in the previously mentioned concert.

In 1997, Matsumoto was cast in his first stage play, which was based on the American coming of age film Stand by Me with future bandmates Masaki Aiba and Kazunari Ninomiya. He did not return to do any major stage productions for nearly seven years after Stand by Me, instead focusing on dramas and movies. However, in 2004, Matsumoto appeared in the stage play West Side Story with bandmates Satoshi Ohno and Sho Sakurai. In 2005 and 2006, Matsumoto was given his first lead stage play roles in Eden no Higashi and Valkyrie of the White Night respectively. It was announced on July 21, 2011, that Matsumoto would star in Yukio Ninagawa's production play, Ah, Wilderness, his first stage play in five years. On April 16, 2024, it was reported that Matsumoto would appear in Hideki Noda's Noda Map's new play, held from July to November. Noda was not open to appointing talent from the former Johnny's office, the reason being their schedule. "With so many activities, like concerts, variety shows and tv. appearances, I thought they couldn't do the job.", he said in a press conference in 2023. In Matsumoto's case, the opportunity was given thanks to Arashi's hiatus. According to the report, he attended Noda's workshop and prepared for the stage since February. Performances were expected not only in Japan but also in London, England. The play, called Sei sankaku kankei and Love in Action in English, is loosely based on Fyodor Dostoevsky's The Brothers Karamazov. Matsumoto, who shared the stage with Masami Nagasawa, and Eita Nagayama, plays the eldest of the Karamatsu brothers, a pyrotechnic artist, in a suspense story that deals with the "incident" of the murder of their father. The play had performances in Tokyo, at the Tokyo Metropolitan Theatre, in Kitakyushu and Osaka, as well as Sadler's Wells Theatre in London, running from July 11 until November 2.

Like bandmate Sho Sakurai, Matsumoto made his acting debut as a television actor. He appeared in the April 1997 TBS drama special Insurance Investigator. A few months later, he co-starred with the members of KinKi Kids and future bandmate Masaki Aiba in the mystery-thriller series Bokura no Yūki: Miman Toshi.

He made a guest appearance on the final episode of bandmate Satoshi Ohno's drama Kaibutsu-kun in 2010, drama based on Fujiko Fujio's manga and anime series Kaibutsu-kun. In 1999, all the members of Arashi co-starred together for the first time in the volleyball-centered short drama V no Arashi. They appeared together after nearly ten years in the 2010 drama special Saigo no Yakusoku.

His portrayal of the troubled but highly intelligent student, Shin Sawada, drew acclaim and won him Best Supporting Actor at the 33rd Television Drama Academy Awards. He later returned with most of the original cast to star in the special epilogue episode in 2003. In 2003, Matsumoto took another high-profile role in the live-action adaptation of manga series Kimi wa Pet as Takeshi "Momo" Goda, starring opposite Koyuki.

In 2007, due to the success of Hana Yori Dango, it spawned a second season, which was an even bigger hit with television audiences as it had a peak rating of 27.6% on the final episode and an overall rating of 21.57%. Matsumoto won Best Supporting Actor at the 10th Nikkan Sports Drama Grand Prix for his role. The series ended with a movie in 2008.

Later in 2018, Matsumoto returned for the sequel titled 99.9 Keiji Senmon Bengoshi-Season II.

Matsumoto's expected starring role in a Fuji Television Wednesday drama in July 2025 as a police officer was uncertain, following the Fuji Television – Masahiro Nakai scandal. It would be the first starring role since the NHK taiga drama "Dosuru Ieyasu" (2023) and the first since obtaining his independence from Starto Entertainment in 2024. "It is up to him to decide whether or not he can appear." said a representative from Fuji TV. Unfortunately, it never happened.

Matsumoto opened an Instagram account in December 2022 to promote his upcoming taiga "Dou suru Ieyasu", activities related to it, as well as some personal posts via Instagram Stories. On May 12, 2024, he changed the account's name and icon, to reflect his current activities, and via an Instagram Stories post, he warned fans and followers that he does not have any other account except for the Instagram one, as there are several fake accounts appearing in X (formerly Twitter) claiming to be him.

Matsumoto has been shipped with Mao Inoue since their Hana Yori Dango series appearances. There have been reports of meetings, sightings and dates, all covered by all kinds of sites, both in the mainstream as well as gossip sites. However, Inoue herself denied any kind of rumors of marriage in a TV appearance in 2024. However rumors of their marriage arose again after Arashi's end of activities in May 2026.

According to former classmate and fellow actor Ryuhei Matsuda, in High School, Matsumoto was called Darth Vader by his classmates. On the September 14, 2017 Arashi program "Arashi ni Shiyagare" episode, where this was revealed, fellow member Kazunari Ninomiya commented that then fellow Johnny Tomohisa Yamashita, who was their junior, often called him "King", nickname that was affirmed by Matsumoto's portrayal of Domyouji on Hana Yori Dango The public nickname MJ, with widespread use since the 'Arashi ni Shiyagare" section "This is MJ" started on April 11, 2015, has its probable origin in the 2007 Arashi concert "Time", where Matsumoto, for his solo song "Yabai, yabai, yabai", performed the so–called "MJ Walk", where he walked upside down while suspended by wires. Ninomiya has called him "MatsuJun", "Massan", "Jun–kun", "MJ" and "J", this last one as mentioned by Ninomiya on the February 7, 2015 Arashi ni Shiyagare episode, was inspired while reading Sakigake!! Otokojuku. The character J, who had thick eyebrows, reminded him of Matsumoto (Matsumoto also has thick eyebrows). Regarding the use of "J" as his first nickname, Ninomiya stated that, since he and Matsumoto are basically the same age (difference of 2 months) and their start in the agency was close, he didn't know what to call him, so he called Matsumoto "J" while everyone else called him "MatsuJun". On the December 11, 2016, episode of his radio program "Bay Storm", Ninomiya confessed that he loved being the only one calling Matsumoto "J", but as this was no longer the case (at this time), he chose to call him "Jun kun" and "Massan". But those are not the only nicknames he has called him. Ninomiya also started calling him "Emperor" on Arashi's program "Himitsu no Arashi chan" corner's "Mannequin Five Spring Break Special Episode" aired March 31, 2011, as well as jokingly calling him by nicknames based on activities or situations Matsumoto was going through at the moment of the filming of their programs, such as "AtsuJun" (as Matsumoto was grilling some meat, he constantly was saying "atsu" (hot)), nickname that was "revived" by Masaki Aiba on a Mitsuya Cider commercial in 2020,
