Bourne 4...

[lordofthenerds]

I hope they don't do a fourth movie, I'd rather see the series go out with a bang than an unecessary sequel.

 

[Speedball]

NOT GONNA HAPPEN!!!

 

[xwolverine2]

should have ended two movies ago

 

[bullets]

i read an interview where matt damon said he would return if the story were good . i personally think they should leave it where it is , great trilogy .

 

[daywalker2007]

of course there will be a 4th

the 3rd has so far made $185 million domestic on a budget of $110 million.

and its barely been in the theatres a month.

It will end up at something around $220 to $230 million domestic. Add in the international numbers, thats a bloody big profit.

Its guarenteed there will be a 4th. Maybe not soon, but definitely within the next 4 years.

I reckon Damon will do a 4th and take a backend percentage of the profits when he does it.

Its absolutely guarenteed. Bourne is a money making machine. Why stop when the studio knows it can make even more!

 

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

To be honest, i hope there is a 4th as IMO the 3rd didnt give us enough answers.

Alot of actors say that.

A sequel would be unnecessary, and most times, money is irrelevant.
You don't see every major blockbuster getting a sequel.

 

[TheVileOne]

Warhammer, you are wrong.

Money is NOT irrelevant to the studios.

Just about everything is getting a sequel or prequel these days.

WB for example is desperate for Frank Miller's idea for the 300 sequel. So if WB can figure out a way to do it, they will.

Even movies that weren't really blockbusters get sequels like 28 Days Later.

Ben Affleck Hoping Jason Bourne Has Sidekick In Next Movie

LOS ANGELES—Actor Ben Affleck, best known for his role in the 2003 film Daredevil, told reporters Monday he would really like to see action hero Jason Bourne, played by longtime friend Matt Damon, acquire a sidekick in his next film.

"I was thinking that the character, who would probably be Bourne's childhood friend, could really breathe some new life into the series," said Affleck, adding that the Jason Bourne character ran the risk of boring American audiences if the superspy wasn't allowed to show a more human side in his films. "I envision the sidekick as being taller, slightly beefier, and having darker hair than Bourne. He may not be the smartest, but he could provide comic relief and would always look out for his best friend."

"I know a few people who would play the part," the Jersey Girl and Gigli star continued. "Hell, even I would put some projects aside to do it if that's what the producers wanted."

According to Affleck, the fourth film in the Bourne franchise, which has traditionally taken place in European locales but was most recently set in New York City, needs a refreshing location that would surprise filmgoers, such as gritty South Boston. Just moments after the opening credits, the amnesiac CIA assassin would learn that he grew up there, had an abusive childhood, dropped out of high school, and once worked as a janitor at a local college.

Affleck said he ultimately imagined the film as being less a traditional spy thriller and more about friendship and the importance of realizing one's true potential.

"The sidekick represents the kind of life Bourne would have lived had he never gone off and become a hotshot CIA agent with a big-time career," said Affleck, who described the new character as having suffered a string of bad luck and made a number of poor life choices. "Basically, his character would kill to have Bourne's natural fighting and spying ability, but it's his role in the movie to show Bourne that even though he is a very gifted and talented individual, he should never leave his old friends behind."

Though Affleck, who offered to write the script for free, anticipates more lengthy scenes of dialogue than is typical for a Bourne film, he promised the movie would not be without its signature fight sequences. Affleck said he had already storyboarded one scene, set at a Boston Red Sox game, in which Bourne, the sidekick, and another high school friend, played by director Kevin Smith, get into a fast-paced drunken argument over the film Star Wars and each of their respective mothers.

"How do you like them apples?" said Affleck, referring to what the sidekick could theoretically say after Bourne breaks the necks of several security guards at Fenway Park.

Affleck, who won a Teen Choice Award for his work in 2001's Pearl Harbor, said he plans to pitch the idea to Damon the next time the two see each other, hopefully at an Emmy Awards after-party next month. If Affleck loses his invitation for the event Damon is attending, as he reportedly did last year, he and Damon will discuss the project during one of the rare weekends in which Damon is not working on a film and both actors happen to be at home in their native Massachusetts at the same time.

"I really think he'll go for this," Affleck said. "I know Matt Damon better than anyone in the world, and I just know he's going to love this. I know it. He just has to."

While admitting that a fourth Bourne film has not been discussed, executive producer Doug Liman agreed that a sidekick character might be worth exploring. Liman wrote in an e-mail Friday that he already had a short list of possible candidates for the role, including Vince Vaughn, John C. Reilly, Luke Wilson, Tim Robbins, Minnie Driver, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Casey Affleck, Don Cheadle, and Adam Sandler.

Ultimatum's ending was perfect. No sense in going and ruining it by trying to make a 4th one.

 

[TheVileOne]

You think executives care about that.

The Universal executives are probably dancing around in a circle right now singing:

"You've got money, money. Yeah, yeah!"

 

[Warhammer]

Now that's funny right there, Whiskey Tango.

[Reek]

obviously Ben Affleck is jealous of his friends success...comon, bourne with a friend, hahhahaha

 

[jimmylace]

I think hes joking...or at least I hope he is. NO MORE BOURNE MOVIES!

 

[jimmylace]

ultimatum was seriously underwhelming in my opinion. nowhere near as good as supremacy.

 

[Gilpesh]

Yeah. That's why you only get the first three on DVD. And only catch the fourth on cable.

Matt Damon is now saying on yahoo that he's open to more down the line. Well he never said it would never happen before.
Now he's just a little more open to it.

Matt Damon recently told the media that he is now open to doing another Bourne film. Damon had previously said that The Bourne Ultimatum would be the final film he would do in the series.

"Personally, the character means a lot to me because the character has done so much for my career. You know, it put me in the position where I have a lot more choices of kind of movies I want to make."

"If Paul Greengrass, maybe years down the road, was interested in doing another one, then I would do it, too," Damon added said. "I don't think either of us completely put the character to bed yet."

Credit: Yahoo!

So somewhere down the line, a new movie, The Bourne Legacy, with an older and maybe more wore down Jason Bourne. I think Ultimatum is technically a perfect end to the series.

However, if Gilroy, Damon, and Greengrass all come back, and it's for the right reasons and the story is legit, well I would probably want to see it.

Damon said in the EW cover story that if they did another movie, he thinks Bourne should be about 10 years older.

 

[Immortalfire]

Ultimatum was a great finale. Jason is finally free of them, let him be.

 

[Kanon]

No way, keep them coming... Ultimatum was wonderful, and I think this franchise still has a lot to give... We finally find a franchise that can get to a good 3rd movie, I say we keep it alive.

 

[OobeDoobBenubi]

I would like to see a movie where Borune reunites with his long last family. We never were told if any of them were alive or dead & then maybe have it like he goes to see his mother or something & then an old enemy group comes in & does some Webb family kidnapping & the bad guys are holding Webbs family hostage & various peoples families within the government hostage & now Webb has to team up with the Government & Landy to set things right. Something like this.

 

[L0ngsh0t]

One movie ago I was against even a 3, but now I am all for another Bourne movie, what a difference a good movie can make

I would like some one else besides greengrass however, I think Supremecy was the trend, and Ultimatum the mirage with his talents unfortunately

 

[Hunter Rider]

Even Matty knows the value of da moolaht: I wish Liman would come back

 

[TheVileOne]

It's not going to happen. The first one was apparently more of a difficult nightmare for both parties than what was reported.

And Greengrass did a good job with two movies.
