While it’s been rumored ever since THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM scored meaty box office, Universal has officially put a paid writer at the keyboard in the hopes of getting star Matt Damon and director Paul Greengrass to commit in ink. The pair has been only considering a return, and will decide whether to do a fourth (and so on) based on the strength of the script.
Screenwriter George Nolfi, who co-wrote the last BOURNE (and OCEAN’S TWELVE), is at work on a brand new story — the previous trilogy was based (however loosely) on the series of novels by Robert Ludlum.
