Opening in wide release later this week, THE BOURNE LEGACY is the fourth installment in the big-screen series adapted from the work of best-selling author ROBERT LUDLUM. This time around, a new (but equally mysterious) black ops agent follows in the footsteps of Jason Bourne as he strolls into a world of conspiracy and covert activity. Co-written (with brother DAN) and directed by TONY GILROY, the cast includes JEREMY RENNER, EDWARD NORTON, RACHEL WEISZ, DONNA MURPHY, JOAN ALLEN, ALBERT FINNEY and DAVID STRATHAIRN.

Putting a new spin on an existing franchise is no mean feat but, during the recent press conference to promote the film, the brothers GILROY admitted that once they figured out the new twist it was pretty smooth sailing. (CLICK ON THE MEDIA BAR FOR AUDIO)
