The trailer for The Bourne Legacy, the fourth movie of the Bourne series with new star Jeremy Renner and new director Tony Gilroy (Michael Clayton, Duplicity), appears below. It's still called "Bourne," but Renner plays a new punchy amnesia guy named Aaron Cross (not an unacknowledged actor switcharoo a la Bewitched). If you're anything like Burnsy, you're probably super duper excited right now. If you're like me, you're probably thinking "More like BORED legacy, am I right?" Seriously though, these movies are like Phil Collins' keynote address at an oatmeal convention, and they've made four of them. I liked the secret-agent-with-amnesia plot better when it was called The Long Kiss Goodnight.
The narrative architect behind the Bourne film series, Tony Gilroy, takes the helm in the next chapter of the hugely popular espionage franchise that has earned almost $1 billion at the global box office: The Bourne Legacy. The writer/director expands the Bourne universe created by Robert Ludlum with an original story that introduces us to a new hero (Jeremy Renner) whose life-or-death stakes have been triggered by the events of the first three films. For The Bourne Legacy, Renner joins fellow series newcomers Rachel Weisz, Edward Norton, Stacy Keach and Oscar Isaac, while franchise veterans Albert Finney, Joan Allen, David Strathairn and Scott Glenn reprise their roles.

Is it racist that I titled this picture "No rikey?"
Don't answer that.
I see a window and I can't help but want to put Precious behind it, staring sadly. It's a sickness.
I enjoy whatever's going in the background here.

Thanks for your attention and maybe you want to check out my photos there firstly, lol~
Also, it should totally be called Still Bourne.
“Bourne This Way”
It would be faaaabulous.
Stop being a douche, they’re good films Vinnie.
Good films or not, they are largely responsible for the Michael J. Fox style of cinematography, so fuck this.
That actually looks kind of bad ass and I might have to go see it.
“Bourne Again.”
I’ll show myself the door, thanks.
Vince Vaughn eating ice-cream in the background never ceases to make me laugh.
Missed that, thanks for the tip to check the pic again.
I wouldn’t mind seeing Corbin Bernsen in the Roger Dorn Legacy.
Raise your hand if you ever tried Geena Davis’ roll-the-shot-glass-off-your-cheek trick and ended up looking like a big douche.
/raises hand.
Not giving up the dream yet though. It’s a close runner-up in movie moves I’d like to emulate after a game-winning shootout triple-deke against the Hawks.
Renner must age in dog years. Every new film he’s in he looks 10 years older.
So, it’s Fight Club, but Edward Norton’s alter-ego is also some kind of roboman?
Bourne in the U.S.A.?
Shaky cam aside…
Doug Likable: Jesus Rippletittld Christ, have you seen these dailies? Damon is as convincing at hand fighting as Marilu Henner is at not being a pretentious cunt. To the shaky cam!!
…I found myself quite entertained by these films. But why not change the title and make a stir with a realised connection to the other films instead of leeching off of them? Oh ya, because Hollytards are just fuckwits in suits.
Likable?! Fucking autocowreck!
Also, Rippletitted.
If they don’t release this on independence day and use the tag “Bourne on the 4th of July,” they’re pissing away a golden opportunity.
The Bourne movies are solid, and definitely better than most recent action movies, but I’m not sure that warrants four of them. ESPECIALLY if you’re not continuing with the same main character.
No offense to Renner.
Well let’s just see if Renner here can explode a covey of bad guys with a toaster and a Car and Driver magazine, or he can fuck right off!
I still like to call shaky cam “Bourneography.”
How about an installment set on Alcatraz?
BOURNE TO ROCK
I’ve seen them all and I want my money back. Maybe I’ll suss(t)udio.
I really like these movies, but honestly i think it’s just not going to work as a franchise without the original character, Matt Damon or not. It just looks a little duller. Don’t get me wrong, I’m still going to go see it, but during it I’ll probably be Bourne to Death.
I could draw The Long Kiss Goodnight movie poster from memory. Needed more diagonal lines though.
Homosexuality is not a choice, and Renner lives with a dude (true story).
BOURNE GAY
BOURNE THIS WAY would have also been acceptable.
Can he escape from a meat locker with a baby-doll full of gasoline? No? Can he shoot a car full of bad guys while ice skating? I thought not. Had a knife fight with Craig Bierko and lived to tell about it?
…Jesus, that movie was silly.
Did the new story line come from a natural progression of the Bourne story or did Matt Damon not want to do another movie?
If it’s the latter, I’m not seeing this. I do know that the Bourne movies are based on books, but do not know if there were more than one subject in Black Briar. I’ll wait while someone reads the books and gets back to me. No Cliff’s Notes!
Well, considering the Blackbriar program never existed in the books, your question is kind of moot.
If you only validate films based on their consistency with the books, you’re looking at the wrong series. None of the films in this series have ever so much as made a token attempt at representing the books. They stole Jason Bourne’s name, but that’s it.
Ah, I knew someone had read it. If this movie storyline had been taken from the books, I’d give it a shot. I don’t validate movies based on their consistency with books. I figure if they wrote the movie and Damon passed, it’s probably not very good.
I can’t wait for the story arc where he wakes up in the mountains of Western North Carolina not being able to remember anything about himself. He soon develops fever, abdominal pain, a rash on his hands and feet, as well as thrombocytopenia and mild hyponatremia. I call it Tick Bourne
Needs Brian Bosworth.
Also, he looks like he’s trying to hold in a shart in the first pic.

Will he take apart a henchman’s gun while it’s still in his hands? I like when they take apart a henchman’s gun while it’s still in his hands.
HOLY SHIT! ARE YOU TELLING ME THAT THIS NEW MATT DAMON JUST TAUGHT A PARROT HOW TO LIFT WEIGHTS AND DO DEADLIFTS!11!1!111 BEST MOVIE EVARRRRRRRR111111!
Why the fuck is Renner getting work still? He blows
The training/backstory montage all done and dusted in the trailer. H’mm? I like it. This is the future.
Having just seen The Brothers Bloom (recommended), Rachel Weisz and I have embarked upon a committed, imaginary relationship. So I’ll see the living fucksauce out of this. Also, Renner was the tits in Hurt Locker and The Town, so he my boy.
Oh man…I laughed way too hard at the caption to pic 2.
