Matt Damon’s name has grown synonymous with the franchise in a way Cruise’s has to the ‘ Mission Impossible’ series of films, or Bruce Willis in the Die Hard films. The longevity of the franchise with a singular protagonist that started out in 2002 is anyway bound to raise questions, but I am certainly hopeful that enough matter can be squeezed, if at all the franchise decides to go back to the books, for one last outing. Now, twelve novels could roughly translate to enough matter for the screen for twelve more films, spinoffs and everything typical for a franchise, but as Damon noted, it might not be too long before the public starts moving on with the character. The one thing that made ‘Jason Bourne’ so markedly different from its far superior parent trilogy of ‘Bourne’ films, something that also quickly became the centre point of all its major criticisms regarding the lack of a proper storyline is that it was a completely fresh story, only marginally based on and drawing inspiration from the books, as opposed to the original trilogy that was an official and direct adaptation of Robert Ludlum’s novels.įollowing the author’s demise, Eric Van Lustbader has been carrying the story and the legacy of Ludlum’s work forward, and has since written 12 novels that continue and expand upon the story of Bourne and his world of spy espionage.

One thing can be termed for definite: Bourne is going to be on the run, again. Their constant game of one-upmanship should surely frame a part of the sequel too, as we also get to explore the fate of the Iron Hand program at the CIA, and things are definitely bound to get interesting given that Lee is now the CIA’s director, and in essence, the eyes and ears of the Director of National Intelligence. In addition to the themes of the previous Bourne films including international relation and spy espionage, ‘Jason Bourne’, despite being a direct sequel to 2007’s ‘Ultimatum’ was remarkably self-aware of the digital age it was set in: the film appreciably so navigated themes of digital paranoia and mass surveillance, which is something I would personally love to see expanded in the sequel, provided they are quickly greenlit.Įven when the film ended, Bourne too ended up having the upper hand against Heather Lee, with him revealing that he was always a step ahead of her and knew that she intended to take him down if he didn’t give in to the offer of returning to the CIA under Lee’s promise that it would be all it was when he first joined. On that partly ambiguous note, it would seem only prudent that Jason Bourne be brought out from the shadows one last time. Interestingly enough, ‘ Jason Bourne’ ended on exactly the note that the makers wanted, something that is perfectly encompassed in this Variety review of the film, stating that “the sequel offers closure even as it entices us with the possibility of his return”. On the other hand, remarkably all of them, despite the film not bearing as impressive dividends closer home, have been positive of a sequel that would finally close out Bourne’s story.

Read on.īoth the makers and Damon, the headlining star have been pretty clear that they won’t return for a fifth outing with the character and the sixth film overall if they did not have a good story to tell in the first place. Moving forward, even as there are no official announcements yet, here is everything we seemingly know to gauge whether a ‘Bourne’ sequel would be happening in the first place or not. With the fifth film in the franchise, the faith with the makers and Damon himself dwindled as the numbers closer home weren’t exactly knocks-out-of-the-park, but despite that, everybody involved including ‘ The Martian’ star look hopeful for a sequel. Since then, the genre has clearly lasted more than a decade to deliver an original trilogy with ‘Identity’, ‘Supremacy’ and ‘Ultimatum’ with Matt Damon, a spin-off starring Jeremy Renner as black ops agent Aaron Cross, and then back to Damon with the 2016 epilogue of sorts, ‘Jason Bourne’, each of them to varying degrees of critical success even as the commercial aspects of the franchise look only stronger, considering that the series has grossed more than $1.6 Billion at the global box office. The much acclaimed chase scene in Paris, and the numerous hand to hand fight sequences with cuts every second that all but changed the game for action movies really prove what I am trying to say.
