The Bourne Legacy

By Reggie's Take on June 1, 2012

The narrative architect behind the Bourne film series, Tony Gilroy, takes the helm in the next chapter of the popular espionage franchise, The Bourne Legacy.

The writer/director expands the Bourne universe 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.
