Gilroy’s Bourne Ultimatum had been “unreadable”, railed Damon in an unusually outspoken GQ interview. Tensions between the pair and long-term Bourne screenwriter Tony Gilroy boiled over when Gilroy’s Bourne Legacy got underway. Paul Greengrass and Matt Damon have been questioned regularly about a fourth Jason Bourne outing since 2007, neither committing to it nor flat-out rejecting the idea. Nearly a decade and one ill-starred spinoff, The Bourne Legacy, have passed since The Bourne Ultimatum. There are riots on the streets, Edward Snowden in hiding, and drones patrol the skies. Instead of post-9/11 paranoia, he’s now a player in a world complicated by cyber warfare, hacking, surveillance and ugly economic recessions. But the geopolitical landscape has changed since he first fished himself out of the Mediterranean in 2002. Jason Bourne sees cinema's deadliest amnesiac (just ahead of Dory) faced with more implacably nasty adversaries. If Jason Bourne thought he was through the worst Blackbriar, Treadstone and all those other top-secret ops that sound strangely like brands of tyre could throw at him, he’s mistaken. Screenwriters: Christopher Rouse, Matt Damon, Paul GreengrassĬast: Matt Damon, Alicia Vikander, Tommy Lee Jones, Vincent Cassel, Julia Stiles, Riz Ahmed, Ato Essandoh, Scott Shepherd
