Matt Damon Reveals New Story Details for BOURNE 5

Jason Bourne is coming back for a fifth chapter in the Bourne film franchise. The production is currently underway, and in a recent interview with NY Daily News, Matt Damon offers some additional details regarding the new movie and the character he plays.

“[Bourne] has his memory back, but that doesn’t mean he knows everything. It’s 12 years since Jason Bourne has been on the grid. So we have to answer the questions, Where’s he been? What’s he doing? What gets him going again? So once we solved all that, then we had a movie.”

Yeah, these details definitely raise more questions than they answer. Damon is just keeping the intrigue alive. During a previous interview, Damon talked a little bit about the inspiration behind story they are telling:

"Without giving too much of it away, it’s Bourne through an austerity-riddled Europe and in a post-Snowden world. It seems like enough has changed, you know? There are all these kinds of arguments about spying and civil liberties and the nature of democracy."

The actor also said that the movie starts in Greece and ends in Las Vegas, which will definitely be an interesting setting for its climactic conclusion. Paul Greengrass is directing the film, which also stars Tommy Lee Jones as a high-ranking CIA officer, Alicia Vikander as the female lead, Vincent Cassel as the villain, and Julia Stiles reprising her role as Nicky Parsons.

I'm sure Matt Damon knows more than he is letting on as he was involved with the scriptwriting. If it stays along with the premis of the first 3 Bourne movies it will be something to look forward to. Bourne Legacy just didn't do it for me and there'll be a sequel coming up to that too!!!!

I'd say this will be better than Legacy, the main draw is back in the saddle, people can say whatever but once a character is "made famous" by an actor they kind of own it and it's near impossible for someone else to step into that role and have any real degree of success, this is especially true in a series.

3 words come to mind. NAIL, HIT and HEAD! ;)

However that didn't happen (for most) with James Bond, or is that just my age showing??? :sorry

Just had a horrible thought.

I remember watching the first ever Dr. Who when it was first broadcast in the UK! =O

If only DVD recorders were around then!

I think with Bond everyone wants to see a man in his prime in that role, so once 10 years or so have past in real time, it's time for a new Bond to keep his youth alive.

I honestly think of Bond as a "spy" and not as a "man" per se, you know :)

Perhaps it's where there have been so many over the years we have just grown numb to it or more likely we are more fond of the character than we are the actor who plays him, I think for myself that is certainly the case.

Edris Elba rumors are swirling about him becoming the next Bond. I would have loved to see that 5 years ago. You never know.
