Universal Wants More Movie From Matt Damon And Paul Greengrass

 

If Universal’s plan holds true, fans won’t be waiting another nine years before seeing Matt Damon’s hardened super-spy Jason Bourne light up multiplexes again. Though both actor and his long-time director Paul Greengrass consistently denied claims that they’d return for a fourth film in the series, the allure of Bourne proved too strong.

Early buzz is certainly positive, and while box office figures will no doubt determine the eventual future of the series, the studio’s chairwoman Donna Langley told The New York Times of her desire to maintain steady stream of Bourne movies with Damon and Greengrass on board, of course.
Reflecting on his decision to finally say ‘yes’ to the offer, Matt Damon touched base on the balancing act involved in delivering a product that simultaneously boasts the spirit of the original trilogy, and something new entirely.

Flanked by a cast of A-listers that features Tommy Lee Jones, Alicia Vikander, Vincent Cassel, Julia Stiles and Riz Ahmed, Matt Damon returns as the title super-spy when Jason Bourne makes a break for theaters on July 29.
