I mildly enjoyed The Bourne Identity, and also enjoyed The Bourne Ultimatum (although I didn’t really thing either were great films). Matt Damon has both a fantastic charm and intensity when he needs them both on screen and he was enough to carry both films.
It won’t surprise any of us that the wheels have now been officially put into motion for the third installment of the franchise, The Bourne Ultimatum. The good folks over at Ananova give us this:
Tony Gilroy has been signed up by Universal Pictures to write the screenplay for The Bourne Ultimatum. Gilroy previously adapted Robert Ludlum’s The Bourne Identity and The Bourne Supremacy. Matt Damon already has expressed his interest at reprising his role as Jason Bourne reports Digitalspy.
Although not a HUGE fan of the first two films, I think this series has enough legs to it that it can continue to improve with a lot of upside potential. I’m looking forward to it.
