Matt Damon recently spoke with Shortlist while promoting his new movie Contagion, he also talked a little bit about The Bourne Legacy, saying that Jeremy Renner is not a "younger model" for the franchise.

The next Bourne film is going ahead with Jeremy Renner instead of you in the central role. It’s not a case of being traded in for a younger model, is it?
No, not at all. I was always fine with them doing another Bourne movie as long as it didn’t preclude me and Paul [Greengrass] from doing another Bourne. From what I understand, it doesn’t at all, so that’s fine. I really want to do another one with Paul and I’m sure it’ll happen someday, but for now they’re doing this. And I’m a huge Jeremy Renner fan. I’m sure he’ll be great.

So it’s more of a spin-off with Renner playing a different character. Does that mean there’s still hope? I’m keeping hope, man.



The Bourne Legacy is coming on August 3rd, 2012, the cast includes Jeremy Renner, Rachel Weisz, Joan Allen and Edward Norton!

How can Renner be considered a "younger model".He's exactly 3 months younger than Matt Damon.They're the same age.Hell, Renner actually looks a little older than Damon.

indeed...how anyone would consider this as a young taking over the old is BEYOND ME. They're practically the same age with Renner looking much older than Damon. it MIGHT be the case with Renner's involvement in the new Mission: Impossible, with Tom Cruise..but not here.

it'll be cool if one day they have Bourne vs. Bourne with Damon going head to head with Renner's character.
