A new Jason Bourne film is in the early stages of development with the director of All Quiet on the Western Front in talks to direct.
What evil government plot did Jason Bourne suddenly remember this time? Deadline reports that Universal Pictures is in early development on a new Jason Bourne movie, with All quiet on the West Front director Edward Berger is in talks to direct the project.
As development on the new Jason Bourne film is still in its infancy, there is currently no script and no other talent attached beyond Edward Berger. As for Matt Damon, who starred as Bourne in four of the five films, he will be approached once a script is in place, but there is no guarantee he would consider returning to the franchise. action
The last film in the series, Jason Bourne, was a box office hit upon its release in 2016, grossing $412 million worldwide, but received lackluster reviews from audiences and critics. Matt Damon acknowledged the general ‘meh’ from the audience, but he wasn’t about to rule out another series. “This last one didn’t do as well as the one we did 10 years ago, so maybe people are done with the character,” Damon said. “I think everyone is leaving the door open, like we did at the end of this movie, hoping that we can create an interesting story for the next one.“
Should Paramount move on if Matt Damon doesn’t return for this new Jason Bourne movie? Part of me wonders if a new story with a new actor would be a more effective way to go, but we saw how well that worked with him. The Bourne legacy.
Without it The Bourne Identity and The Bourne legacy, most of the Jason Bourne films have been directed by Paul Greengrass, but the director has said that he is done with the franchise. “It hasn’t appeared recently, so I don’t know what their plans are,” Greengrass said in 2020.I’m sure they’ll make more ‘Bourne’ movies, I hope so. I don’t know if I’ll be involved, but I’ve really done my time, haven’t I? Let’s be honest. But I love the movie ‘Bourne’, and I love the actor, and I wish them the best, you know. The truth about it. I would be first in line, that’s for sure.“
Are you down for a new Jason Bourne movie, or should they let the franchise die?
