Jason Bourne Didn’t Get the Memo
That report from two weeks back painting a friendly picture between Universal and Matt Damon might not be entirely on point.
In an interview with Parade, the actor is asked for his two-cents on the Jason Bourne-absent fourth installment The Bourne Legacy. He didn't off like a happy camper.
"I found out they're making another when somebody saw it on the Internet. Nobody bothered to call me. I'm not in it, but even so, they'll work Bourne into the title I guess. Universal just wants to call everything the Bourne something. So I guess they are trying to make another franchise and as they say, 'It isn't over until it's over.'"
To be fair to the studio and filmmakers, Damon painted himself in a corner with his public "I won't return without Paul Greengrass" declaration. Plus, maybe he's full of crap and was fully aware of Universal and writer/director Tony Gilroy’s plans. Hey, actors lie.
