Matt Damon, Paul Greengrass Returning to ‘Bourne’ Franchise

10 years ago | Posted in: Entertainment, USA, World | 620 Views

In a stunning turn of events, Matt Damon and writer-director Paul Greengrass have done an about-face and are planning to return to the Bourne franchise at Universal, an individual familiar with the project has told TheWrap.

Representatives for Universal and Greengrass had no comment.

While some will spin this as a win all around — for Damon, Greengrass, Universal and most importantly, action fans — the trained eye will see shades of grey here.

In recent months, insiders have told TheWrap that Damon has been eager to reprise his signature role as superspy Jason Bourne, even without Greengrass’ involvement. After We Bought a Zoo, Promised Land, Elysium and The Monuments Men all disappointed at the box office, the actor found himself in desperate need of a hit, especially with pal Ben Affleck‘s career soaring to new heights. That meant returning to Bourne.
