Damon Talks Ultimatum
Back as Bourne.
August 25, 2004 - The Moviehole website recently sat down with Matt Damon to discuss his forthcoming projects, including the third film in the increasingly popular Bourne franchise.
Damon tells the site that he's looking forward to the next installment, entitled The Bourne Ultimatum. "They [the studio] definitely want one now," Damon says. "It's a great place to be in, because now we can kind of just [sit] back and listen to people's different ideas on what the third one should be. And if there is a third one... I'm going to have to do it."
Damon also reveals that helmer Paul Greengrass, who directed the recent second installment in the series, is keen to return for the third film. "He and I talked about it and he's open to the idea. The one fear with this movie [Supremacy] is that the director has such success that they get offered everything under the sun and want have time to come back and do the next sequel."
The Robert Ludlum novel on which the film would be based was first published in 1990. In the book, David Webb, professor of Oriental studies, husband, and father, must do what he hoped he would never have to do again – assume the identity of Jason Bourne. His plan is simple: to infiltrate the Medusa group and use himself as bait to lure his nemesis, the Jackal, into a deadly trap.
