Matt Damon Talks More About The Rumored Bourne 4!!

Talking at the Critics' Choice Awards on Friday, Damon said:

"I really hope it’s going to happen.... [but] it’s really up to Paul Greengrass, the director. I’ve always said I won’t do it without him and I think it would be a bad idea to do it without Paul."

According to The Hollywood Reporter, last October Universal announced that it was developing another film with Michael Clayton and Gilroy at the head, but Damon was never consulted.

The star continued:

I think Paul’s probably going to do one or two other films that he’s got kind of cooking but after that [maybe they would start working on a Bourne film].... I think it’s kind of the thing where enough time has passed that I think it won’t matter if we wait five more years to do it.

Finally, he closed by saying:

"We just want to make sure if we do it, that we do it right. There’s been a lot of pressure for us to do it obviously but that’s that moment I think where you got to step back and make sure you’re not making a mistake. So when it feels like the right time, I think Paul would be open to doing it.”

Well, there are 3 more novels in the Bourne series, although I don't know if the 4th-6th books follow the events after Ultimatum.

It may be best to leave well enough alone, its rare when a movie is able to have a fourth SUCCESSFUL sequel.

Michael Clayton is the name of a film written and directed by Gilroy, starring George Clooney. It's very good, but I highly doubt the titular character is producing this film.

Reasonnnn@ Yeah but what i have understood these books are not made by the great Robert Ludlum!... I could remember wrong tho?

@Alex, they arent by Ludlum, and apparently they aren't as good either.

I've read 1 and 2, really good, but no where near as hi-tech :P

Hey Damon!... Why not make another movie with the director that made you famous for Jason Bourne in the first place Doug Liman?!?

Who wants it anyway? Damon is a [frick]ing liberal piece of shit and I doubt anyone cares what he has to say anymore. Or was that just me?
