Tommy Lee Jones will reportedly play “a superior officer at the CIA” in the upcoming Bourne sequel bringing Matt Damon back as Jason Bourne and Paul Greengrass to direct following the less than stellar response to The Bourne Legacy.
Not much is known about the film so far other than the fact Damon is back as Bourne, Julia Stiles is back as Nicky and Alicia Vikander is joining the feature as an unknown character while Viggo Mortensen‘s name has been rumored for a villain role. Jones’ role is expected to be along the same lines as those played by Edward Norton, Chris Cooper, Brian Cox and David Strathairn in past Bourne features.
The film is currently slated for a July 29, 2016 release with production expected to begin later this summer. [Variety]
