One last thing, I wish they would try to stick to the books a bit more instead of making up their own stories.
It should be Jeremy in 'Tredstone' for three films, Matt returns for three more films for the Bourne series. He's still young enough.

I wish they would call it something else instead of The Bourne Legacy, sure I like Matt and I want him to return. This film I will be calling it Tredstone: Legacy, they can call it what ever they want since it's a different character.

You are continuing with the completely absurd and ridiculous Borne series and replacing Matt Damon with someone who doesn't have any distinctive feature of Mat Damon and have the nerve to call it "Borne". I can't say that I'm surprised, considering it's HOLLYWOOD!
The first movie was interesting, the other 2 installments were painfully bad with the constant screaming of "Where is Tredstone!"

He actually looked like Damon for a brief moment.

I'm definitely in for this.....but hesitant.
It just wont be the same without Matt Damon. BUT, I'm keeping an open mind. I know that this is a different character in a different story in the same universe as Bourne......but still, I'm cautious! As long as the story is there, I'm ok with this.
However, I will say that it was a bit foolish of Jeremy Renner to take on that minor role in Mission Impossible immediately before doing this.....because as of right now, all I see is Brandt.

@thejoker-16 Maybe in Contraband next Friday? It's from Universal Pictures too, so maybe there's a chance there.

The Movie Ghost
@bawnian-dexeus: I know right? I still remember seeing that for the first time and thinking he was such a horrible Character. And now he's here.
@felipe-11: You know I just got to thinking that myself. Are there any upcoming big releases it could be attached to?

He looks good, but if I didn't know better I would think this was just from Ghost Protocol, haha. Im still pissed there making a new Bourne movie without Matt Damon though. Yes I know its a spin off type, just I mean come on. But im sure it will be good and ill definitely watch it!

@felipe-11 I'm surprised there wasn't one with M:I, seeing as how he was in that one.

@bawnian-dexeus Damn, I didn't even know he was in that. But I love it when you re-watch a movie from before somebody was famous and you spot them in some tiny role lol
BTW, we should be getting a trailer by now.
