We hadn’t worked together in some years and then we came back on and suddenly there was that feeling that as a film-maker you’re not on your own. “He looks like he’s on a mission, he looks like he’s active, and he looks like there’s no time to waste”.
What’s the best of the action franchises? As seen in the featurette, their frosty interactions lead to one-of-a-kind brawl of the fiercest variety.
Matt Damon is getting candid about how growing up with his best friend, Ben Affleck, helped the pair find success in Hollywood. But if Damon can keep on taking on audacious films like Alexander Payne’s upcoming Downsizing, and Greengrass can keep on making in-the-moment action opuses like Green Zone or the aforementioned Captain Phillips, Jason Bourne could similarly continue on, breaking all the necks on an worldwide scale. “But you know, that’s a good problem to have”.
“You can’t even talk about talking about it without people really getting anxious and angry and feeling it’s a very polarizing topic” he said adding that it would be “great if we could somehow figure out a way to protect our kids from people who are mentally unstable”.
“I just have a lot of gratitude with this character”, he said.
Also on board are Tommy Lee Jones, Alicia Vikander and Vincent Cassel.
Matt Damon and Julia Stiles understand why people would be upset by the presence of guns in the Jason Bourne movie posters, but they don’t think they should be changed. “He’s directing all the time and I’m off working with these other directors”.
Back in 2007, Forbes reported that Damon was paid $26 million for The Bourne Ultimatum-“a bargain for Universal” given that the film went on to gross over $290 million worldwide.
