Frank Marshall and Jeffrey Archer’s friendship has become a business partnership, with Jeffrey Steiner and New Franchise Media bringing them together in order to have Archer’s A Matter Of Honor adapted from novel to the big screen. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Canadian private equity firm acquired the movie and television rights to 10 [...]

I think it’s fair to say Matt Damon is considered one of the nice guys in Hollywood. Sometimes that doesn’t work out so well for him, as with the inference in Team America: World Police that he’s effectively retarded, but that’s an isolated instance. There was a chance he’d turn into an angry Mel Gibson/Russell [...]

It looks like one man has been chosen to try and replace Matt Damon as the star of the next non-Bourne movie. The man with the surely impossible task is Jeremy Renner, at least according to Latino Review. A reminder that the next Bourne film isn’t actually a Bourne film, because the character of Jason [...]

Matt Damon is a tough act to follow, and I wouldn’t like to be the person chosen to attempt to do in the Bourne series. Not that there is any chance of that, obviously, but it appears I’m one of the few 30-something males not vying for the lead role in The Bourne Legacy. The [...]

In case you haven’t heard, there is a fourth Bourne movie on the way, except the character of Jason Bourne isn’t actually involved. Which also means Matt Damon isn’t involved, something he’s not too happy about. As soon as Paul Greengrass left for pastures new (ahem) Bourne 4 was always going to be a tricky [...]

Bourne 4, provisionally titled The Bourne Legacy, is to be directed by Tony Gilroy, with Paul Greengrass having exited after the third film. The question now is whether Matt Damon will return as Jason Bourne or whether he’ll follow Greengrass out the door. The Bourne Legacy has had a difficult life so far, with Universal [...]

The Bourne franchise may be back on track, with a fourth film named The Bourne Legacy beginning the take shape, and plans for further sequels being put in place. The future of the Bourne franchise has been in some doubt in recent months, with no concrete plans for a sequel, and director Paul Greengrass walking [...]

What? There’s still no script for Bourne 4 yet – isn’t that cutting it a little fine. After The Bourne Ultimatum was released, everyone assumed that would be it for the character of Jason Bourne. But the film ended in such a way that the series could continue, and it’s definitely going to. There’s to [...]

There is no doubt in my mind that a fourth Bourne movie will happen. There is too much money in the series for anyone involved to walk away, even if the end of The Bourne Ultimatum would have ended the series nicely. We know it’s coming, and Matt Damon has signed on the dotted line, [...]

Frank Marshall is currently busy working on M. Night Shyamalan’s The Last Airbender, but his role as a producer means he always has other irons in the fire. He recently spoke to Coming Soon about some of those projects, revealing what stage they were at, with some faring better than others. On Bourne 4: “We’d [...]
