Film Franchise to Be 'Bourne' Again

Film Franchise to Be 'Bourne' Again

It seems "The Bourne Ultimatum" wasn't so ultimate after all. Universal is planning yet another installment of the Jason Bourne spy franchise, choosing George Nolfi to write the script, report the trades.

Matt Damon, who starred in the previous three films, is attached to star in the fourth.

Nolfi helped adapt "Ultimatum", which earned $442 million at the worldwide box office. Although the first three films were based on Robert Ludlum's books, the new film will be based on an original story.

Author Eric Van Lustbader, with the permission of the Ludlum estate, has written four other novels in the series.
