"Die Bourne Identität" (2002) basiert auf dem Roman "The Bourne Identity" von Robert Ludlum, der bereits 1980 veröffentlicht wurde...
In einer stürmischen Nacht zieht die Crew eines italienischen Fischerbootes einen halbtoten Mann mit zwei Kugeln im Rücken aus dem Wasser. Er erholt sich schnell, kann sich aber an nichts mehr erinnern, nicht mal an seinen eigenen Namen. Dafür beherrscht er mehrere Fertigkeiten, die ihn selbst verblüffen. Ein geheimnisvolles Laserimplantat in seiner Hüfte ist der einzige Hinweis auf seine Identität. Da es sich dabei um die Nummer eines Schweizer Bankkontos handelt, macht er sich auf den Weg nach Zürich...
Dort angelangt, findet er in einem Schließfach zu dem Bankkonto sechs unterschiedliche Pässe, Banknoten in verschiedenen Währungen und einen Revolver. Wie passt das alles zusammen? Ist er ein Verbrecher oder etwa ein Spion? Als er die Bank wieder verlässt, scheint die gesamte Schweizer Polizei hinter ihm her zu sein. Er flüchtet ins amerikanische Konsulat, da einer seiner Pässe auf den Namen Jason Bourne (Matt Damon, u.a. "Ocean's Eleven", "The Brothers Grimm") ausgestellt ist: angeblich ein US-Bürger. Doch auch da spüren ihn seine Verfolger auf, denen er nur knapp entkommen kann. Zufällig läuft er dabei der deutschen Studentin Marie Kreutz (Franka Potente, u.a. "Lola rennt") über den Weg. Um noch mehr über seine Bourne-Identität herauszufinden, überredet er sie, ihn für 20.000 Dollars nach Paris zu fahren.
Ein höllischer Abenteuertrip quer durch Europa nimmt seinen Lauf. Mittlerweile sind ihnen nicht nur Polizisten, sondern auch noch Agenten und gnadenlose Profikiller auf den Fersen. Je näher Bourne der Wahrheit kommt, desto weniger scheint sein Leben wert zu sein. Bald gibt es für ihn und Marie keinen Ort mehr, an dem die zwei sicher sind...
Das Sequel "The Bourne Supremacy" - dt. Titel: "Die Bourne Verschwörung" - kam am 21. Oktober 2004 in die deutschen Kinos...
Als ein hochrangiger chinesischer Politiker umgebracht wird, spricht alles dafür, dass Bourne der Attentäter ist. Beim CIA weiß man, dass dieser unschuldig unter Verdacht geraten ist. Es scheint, als ob Bournes Person benutzt wurde, um eine diplomatische Krise zwischen den USA und China zu provozieren. Doch zwischen den Fronten der internationalen Geheimdienste und auf der Suche nach seiner wahren Identität bleibt ihm wenig Zeit herauszufinden, wer hinter der Verschwörung steckt, denn seine Gegner haben auch Freundin Marie ins Visier genommen...
Die Dreharbeiten zum 3. Teil "The Bourne Ultimatum" begannen im Oktober 2006... Am 6. September 2007 kam der Film in die deutschen Kinos...
Um eine Zukunft haben zu können, muss Bourne nun endgültig herausfinden, wie alles begann. Von Moskau über Paris, London und Tanger bis nach New York City sucht er nach den letzten Antworten. Immer im Fadenkreuz seiner Gegner. Doch die Ein-Mann-Eliteeinheit Jason Bourne wächst noch einmal über sich selbst hinaus - und das ist absolut tödlich...
Der 4. "Jason Bourne"-Film "The Bourne Legacy" ist in Arbeit, allerdings wird es ein Sequel ohne Matt Damon und den bisherigen Regisseur Paul Greengrass, vielmehr soll ein neuer Held eingeführt werden...

Empire Online meldet...
No movie has attracted quite as much speculation in recent years as the Bourne sequel/reboot/thingamajig. Rumour and counter-rumour have swirled around the project like mist around Prometheus. When Matt Damon and Paul Greengrass demurred and Jeremy Renner and Tony Gilroy stepped up, the question was: who is Renner playing and how would The Bourne Legacy fit into the existing universe?
Well, Empire put those questions to the man himself. "My character is called Aaron Cross," Renner told us, "but he ends up having a bunch of different names. For fans of the franchise, [The Bourne Legacy] has that same ticking clock, but it's a new programme and new characters."
So is Treadstone still involved? "Yeah, it's that same deal, it's just a new set of agents with a different leash. It's the same tempo and pace but more expansive and bigger. The differences are pretty vast but you'll know it's a Bourne movie." [...]

Scott Glenn has joined the cast of the upcoming Universal project, The Bourne Legacy, Variety reports. He will reprise the role of CIA Director Ezra Kramer from The Bourne Ultimatum.
Described as an "expansion" of the universe started with the 2002 film (in turn based on the series of novels by Robert Ludlum), the August 3, 2012 release will also feature Jeremy Renner, Rachel Weisz, Edward Norton, Oscar Isaac, Joan Allen, Albert Finney and Stacy Keach.
Glenn most recently appeared in Sucker Punch and will also be featured in the upcoming The Paperboy.
Tony Gilroy will be both writing and directing the Bourne adventure this time around and will weave a story that, while it won't feature Jason Bourne, will still be intrinsically tied to the character.

Deadline meldet...
What a nice dilemma to have. Just last week, Deadline reported that Rachel Weisz was in talks with Walt Disney Studios for Oz: The Great And Powerful, to be directed by Sam Raimi. But now I've learned that Rachel is in even deeper talks to star opposite Jeremy Renner in Universal Pictures' latest in the Bourne franchise. I hope she can do both pics, but she may not be able to: the Tony Gilroy-directed The Bourne Legacy starts shooting in September, and Oz is planned to go into production this summer. In the Bourne spinoff, two-time Oscar nominee Renner (The Hurt Locker, The Town) will play a new character: an operative from a covert government program that is even more dangerous than the Treadstone brainwashing program that hatched Bourne. Renner is not a kid, and Weisz would be a compatible co-star. In Oz, she would join James Franco and Mila Kunis and play Evanora, the meaner older witch sister of Theodora (Kunis). [...]

Paramount Pictures has scrapped a tentative plan for Chris Pine to resuscitate the Jack Ryan franchise before he reprises his James T. Kirk role in a Star Trek sequel. The slow process of nailing the Ryan script has prompted the studio to focus on getting Pine at the helm of the USS Enterprise first, even as the studio waits to see if JJ Abrams will reprise as Trek director. [...]
This comes after the Ryan picture suffered another creative setback. Steve Zaillian, who wrote the 1994 Ryan film Clear and Present Danger and did uncredited rewrite work on Patriot Games, made a deal last month to rewrite the reboot script but had a change of heart and withdrew within the last two weeks. The studio has begun interviewing other writers. Lost's Jack Bender is still aboard to direct, but he isn't pay or play and could walk. Lorenzo di Bonaventura is producing. Ryan was created by Tom Clancy in his bestselling book series, but the new film is an origin story that started with screenwriter Hossein Amini. Paramount then acquired the Adam Cozad spec script Dubai and hired Cozad to redraft it to be the Ryan relaunch. Anthony Peckham then came on to do a pass, and then Cozad was brought back to a project that by then was being called Moscow. The launching point of the film is one that gets a mention in Clancy's The Hunt for Red October, in the book and the original film that starred Alec Baldwin. It has to do with a terrifying helicopter crash that nearly killed Ryan when he was a 23-year old platoon leader in the US Marines. He was the only member of the platoon to survive. Insiders tell me that an OK version of Ryan could have been put into production this year, but the priority is more about launching a new franchise then filling a release slot. [...]

Are you a good looking actor in your late twenties or thirties with a bit of fame and the ability to carry an action tentpole? Chances are then you'll be testing for Tony Gilroy's upcoming "The Bourne Legacy".
Jake Gyllenhaal, Tobey Maguire, Josh Hartnett, Michael Fassbender, Luke Evans, Taylor Kitsch, Garrett Hedlund, Oscar Isaac, Kellan Lutz, Alex Pettyfer, Michael Pitt, Joel Edgerton, Paul Dano and Benjamin Walker are all in the mix for the role of the main male lead in the upcoming feature which won't have Matt Damon reprising the role.
Gilroy has previously stated this is NOT a "reboot or a recast or a prequel", but rather "there will be a whole new hero, a whole new chapter...this is a stand-alone project. Jason Bourne will not be in this film, but he's very much alive... We're going to show you the bigger picture, the bigger canvas. When you see what we're going and see what we're doing it'll be pretty obvious... but Jason Bourne's actvities in the first three films is the immediate trigger."
Gilroy wants to screen test all of the actors which, combined with availability, is expected to whittle down that list quite fast. Shooting aims to kick off in the Spring.

Hollywood Elsewhere lässt den "Bourne Legacy"-Regisseur zu Wort kommen...
Director-screenwriter Tony Gilroy (Duplicity, Michael Clayton) feels that Michael Fleming's recent Deadline story about his signing to direct The Bourne Legacy didn't have it quite right, so he called this morning with some notes and corrections. "I'm not trying to slag Fleming," he explained, "but one or two things need to be clarified."
The Bourne Legacy, for openers, has simply taking the title from Robert Ludlum's book "but will not use the story," Gilroy says. "It's a completely original screenplay." Secondly, "This is not a reboot or a recast or a prequel. No one's replacing Matt Damon. There will be a whole new hero, a whole new chapter...this is a stand-alone project.
"The easiest way to think of it is an expansion or a reveal," Gilroy says. "Jason Bourne will not be in this film, but he's very much alive. What happened in the first three films is the trigger for what happens. I'm building a legend and an environment and a wider conspiracy...the world we're making enhances and advances and invites Jason Bourne's return [down the road].
"Everything you saw in the first three films actually happened, and everyone who got into will be rewarded for paying attention. We're going to show you the bigger picture, the bigger canvas. When you see what we're going and see what we're doing it'll be pretty obvious....but Jason Bourne's actvities in the first three films is the immediate trigger."

Deadline kennt den künftigen Regisseur...
This signals that the picture -- tentatively titled The Bourne Legacy -- is on a clear forward track. Though it doesn't answer the question of whether Matt Damon will return to reprise his signature character of the amnesiac assassin Jason Bourne. I'm told that Universal plans to make the film even if it has to replace Damon, who'd be crazy to give up his franchise character and a huge paycheck. So the studio is making a deal with Bourne franchiser scripter Tony Gilroy ( who helmed both Michael Clayton and Duplicity) to direct the 4th installment. Gilroy was hired to write the fourquel back in June. The picture will be produced by Frank Marshall, along with Jeffrey Weiner and Ben Smith of Captivate Entertainment. Bourne had originally been earmarked for 2012, but right now a clear timetable hasn't been locked in. The picture is a giant priority for Universal, and Donna Langley and Peter Cramer have been working hard to make it happen.
So what about Matt? Damon last indicated that he wouldn't come back unless director Paul Greengrass helmed. Greengrass made the 2nd and 3rd installments, while Doug Liman directed the first. Greengrass exited the Bourne 4 in a huff when the studio began developing it while he and Damon were making Green Zone for the studio. Gilroy has scripted the first three pictures by deconstructing a dense Robert Ludlum spy thriller down to its essence of a man who can't remember his past. Even though some think Gilroy misfired with Duplicity starring Julia Roberts and Clive Owen, his Michael Clayton was superb. [...]

CS! sprach mit Matt Damon und Regisseur Paul Greengrass über die Zukunft von Jason Bourne...
Universal Pictures announced today that Tony Gilroy is returning to write the script for The Bourne Legacy, the fourth installment in the Jason Bourne franchise. Gilroy is also writing a "franchise bible." He penned The Bourne Identity, The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum.
Frank Marshall and Pat Crowley are also back to produce alongside Captivate Entertainment's Jeffrey Weiner and Ben Smith.
While "The Bourne Legacy" is a book written by Eric Lustabader in Robert Ludlum's "Bourne" series, the film will not be based on it.
Matt Damon has gone on record that he wouldn't reprise the role if director Paul Greengrass is not returning. We'll have to wait and see if this announcement changes Damon's mind.

CS! sprach mit Matt Damon und Regisseur Paul Greengrass über die Zukunft von Jason Bourne...
For the last two and a half years, the desire to do another Jason Bourne movie after the success of The Bourne Ultimatum has been fairly pervasive, especially for Universal Studios ever since it became a global hit. A little over a year ago, producer Frank Marshall hinted they were trying to get another installment off the ground for the summer of 2011, but things seemed to fall apart. We won't recap the entire back and forth about will-they-or-won't-they but when Paul Greengrass walked away from doing a fourth movie last fall, Damon followed suit and then over the course of doing press for Clint Eastwood's Invictus was asked repeatedly about what's next for Jason Bourne? The answer: Universal would relaunch the franchise with a prequel and then possibly Damon and Greengrass would do another movie down the road.
At the junket for the duo's upcoming Iraq-based action-thriller Green Zone, director Paul Greengrass finally laid to rest all of the speculation with a very definite summation of why he decided to move on:
"Listen, I just love the Bourne franchise, number one, and I owe it a great deal, and I gave my all on the two films that I made," he began, "But when I was honest with myself last Autumn, and I was starting to get going on other things, you just come to a point where you realize you've done it. You don't have anything more to contribute to a franchise that needs to continue obviously, and in order to continue, a franchise needs to be rebooted and reenergized by new perspectives. I just felt that I'd done it, and there's nothing unnatural about that. To make a film, it's 19 months of your life seven days a week, 20 hours a day, you've got to have real... and there were just too many other things that I was interested in. I felt like I'd had a wonderful, wonderful time, I loved it and I want it to continue. In the end, contrary to reports, there was never an argument with the studio of any kind at all. I did spend some time thinking that I might (do it) and getting myself to a place of 'what would it be?' and it's only when you do that where you find, 'You know what? I'm gone. I'm onto other things.' I explained (it) to them. We had a very nice discussion--they were completely understanding--and I said 'We'll make some other movies.' They said 'Excellent.'"
A little later, the same question was put to actor Matt Damon and he went as far to explain one of the possible ways they could go with a prequel that would make it easier to adjust for those who can't see anyone else play Jason Bourne:
"I think they have a good way to do a prequel with someone else, and basically make it about the Bourne identity, the actual identity. Any studio is interested in making it an evergreen that can just go on and on and on, and it never will with our character because he's resolved his issues now. He's got his memory back three times now. I don't think anybody wants to see me say 'I don't remember' again, but I think what we could do is that you can do some movies with another actor, anyone, whether it's Ryan Gosling or Russell Crowe or Denzel Washington, and he's Jason Bourne, and at the end of his one or two or three movies, you see them getting ready to pass the identity onto me, so it just becomes like a 007, it becomes the name that they give this certain person who is uniquely positioned. So then if Paul and I come back and do a fourth one in ten years, we'll pass it onto someone else and then the thing can kind of go on."
So clearly, Damon, who said unequivocally that he wouldn't do another "Bourne" movie without Paul is still maintaining the "never say never" credo, which is probably wise. [...]

Empire sprach mit Matt Damon über Teil 4...
[...] "There’ll probably be a prequel of some kind with another actor and another director before we do another one," he said, "just because I think we’re probably another five years away from doing it - we’ve got to get a script..."
OK, note the word ‘probably’. Could mean all kinds of things - that Damon is engaging in pure speculation, for one. But if anyone’s going to have the inside track on Universal’s plans for Bourne, it’s David Webb himself. So... does this mean that Universal has decided to - and here comes that dread word - reboot one of their biggest franchises?
Maybe, maybe... If so, it would contradict recent whispers that tentative feelers have been put out to a major director to fill Greengrass’ shoes, but there’s no doubting the appeal of a reboot for Universal. If they plough ahead with Bourne IV, they’ll have to persuade Damon to come back - a tough call, given his very public vow to work only with Greengrass on the movie. But by rebooting, with a new director and a younger actor, the problem is solved.
And in a way, this could mean that audiences could well get the best of both worlds - they would get a prequel that shows just how bad-ass Bourne was before he became the amnesiac assassin with a conscience, and eventually get to see an older, wiser Damon reprise the role for one final time.
Of course, the plot of Bourne IV has been something of a thorny issue, with multiple screenwriters no closer to cracking the story. And Damon admits that they’re none the wiser. "If you have any ideas, call Universal," he laughed. "They’d love for you to get in touch!" [...]
[01.12.2009]
The Playlist meldet, dass der 4. Teil nun mehr auch ohne Regisseur dasteht...
[...] Sources and friends close to the project tells us that Paul Greengrass has quit "Bourne 4" and walked away from the project. [...]
What's Matt Damon's take on this? He's "loyal to Paul" which means he's likely not going to star in any "Bourne 4" film without him. Or at least not without his blessing and even then, it would have to be a spectacular script (and right now one of those doesn't exist, but Universal has been exploring other options....). [...]
"Bourne 4" is way off track. The studio, Greengrass and Damon's schedule (which he kept open) was hoping to shoot the film in the fall of 2010. With no script, that's unlikely going to happen (though anything's possible). Damon said earlier this fall (before Greengrasss quit) that the film was probably 18 months away from even going before the cameras. During TIFF he said two years.
[21.08.2009]
Wie THR.com meldet, scheint sich der 4. Teil aufgrund eines fehlenden Drehbuchs zu verzögern...
Josh Zetumer has signed on to pen the fourth installment of Universal's "Bourne" movie series, writing what is being described as a parallel script.
George Nolfi, who worked on "The Bourne Ultimatum," initially came back for the fourth entry. He also boarded to write and direct "The Adjustment Bureau," an adaptation of a Philip K. Dick short story that reteams him with "Bourne" star Matt Damon.
But as that movie nears its September start date, Nolfi had to step away from "Bourne." Not wishing to slow development and keen on making "Bourne" part of its 2011 slate, Universal hired Zetumer to write a new script. It is unclear what will occur after Zetumer submits his draft or whether his script will be integrated with Nolfi's.
"Our hope is that Nolfi, a key member of the 'Bourne' team, will return after he is done with 'The Adjustment Bureau,' " a Universal spokesperson said.
Writing two scripts, though rare, is not without precedent in the tentpole movie world. "Star Trek: Generations," "Fantastic Four: The Rise of the Silver Surfer" and "Wolverine" are movies that had parallel scripts commissioned and sometimes had them combined. "Conan," still in development, is another project that falls into that category.
Frank Marshall and Jeffrey Weiner are producing the latest "Bourne" installment.
Zetumer, repped by UTA and Management 360, is generating heat around town for writing "Dune" for Pete Berg and Paramount. He wrote "The Infiltrator" for Warner Bros., to which Leonardo DiCaprio is attached and is being produced by Film 360, Appian Way and David Benioff.
[17.06.2009]
CS! sprach mit dem Produzenten Frank Marshall, u.a. über den 4. Teil...
[...] "We'd like to shoot next year," he told us. "It's trying to get everybody's schedules in the right place and getting the script right. We've done pretty well with these scripts that are pretty loosely put together, but I'd like the script to be really solid this time before we go forward. We're spending a lot of time on this story."
