Yesterday we got a surprise first look at the next Jason Bourne movie that is coming out and it has firmly put the Bourne franchise back in the minds of cinema audiences. Especially that the character of Jason Bourne will be taking centre stage in this one and not Jeremy Renner’s character, which is what we really wanted to see …
SUPERBOWL!!! To most of America, that meant watching a two groups of heavily padded roid-bruisers violently slamming into each over a little bit of pigskin yesterday. But for us film geeks though, its basically Movie Trailer Christmas as studios try to cash in on the fact that a large portion of the population is already glued to their screens. And …
Matt Damon’s Jason Bourne – one of the trinity of JB-initialed spies – is returning in the fifth, and as yet untitled, Bourne movie next year – replacing Jeremy Renner’s Aaron Cross from the fourth in the series, The Bourne Legacy, which he didn’t really live up to.

For a while now, it seemed like Damon was done playing Jason Bourne on the big screen, refusing to return unless director Greengrass was at the helm.

The Bourne Legacy was an example of such an unstoppable force of government meddling and training, and while it may not be perfect, it …
This week at South African cinemas, new entries in hit movie franchises are evenly matched with art house fare. Take your pick… The Bourne Legacy: Matt Damon is out and Jeremy Renner is in for this fourth film in the action-espionage Bourne film series, stemming from Robert Ludlum’s spy thriller books. A rogue black ops agent – who isn’t Jason …
We’ve been hearing it from new writer/director and series narrative architect Tony Gilroy since the start, that the events in the new Bourne Legacy are not a rehash or reboot but rather as a direct result of the actions of amnesiac ass-kicker Jason Bourne, in the last film.
