Matt Damon hints that the next Bourne movie could be a prequel

Hollywood star Matt Damon has hinted that the next Bourne movie could be a prequel.

The 39-year-old actor plays the lead role of Jason Bourne in the movie trilogy and said the next one could take a different approach.

Talking at the UK premiere of new movie Invictus, he said: “There’ll probably be a prequel of some kind with another actor and another director before we do another one.

“We’re probably five years away from another one. We’ve got to get a script.”

Damon has previously said he would not return to the film series unless the director Paul Greengrass returned as well.
