Edward Norton To Play The Villain In ‘The Bourne Legacy’ Opposite Jeremy Renner?
Variety bring word that Edward Norton is in negotiations to play the villain in Universal’s ‘The Bourne Legacy’ opposite Jeremy Renner. Norton is without doubt one of my favourite actors working today, to see him play a villain in this film would heighten my anticipation tenfold!
Writer/Director Tony Gilroy wrote the previous three Bourne movies along with ‘The Devil’s Advocate’ and ‘Michael Clayton’ (which he also directed) – each thoroughly thumbs up worthy movies. Also to point out while the film shares a title with the book ‘The Bourne Legacy’ by Eric Van Lustbader – the first book in the series after original writer Robert Ludlum’s death – Gilroy says it’s a stand alone script that does not follow the same plot. The film will feature a whole new hero (Jeremy Renner) in the same universe as the first three Bourne films, though the character of Jason Bourne (Matt Damon) will be absent. Expect concrete casting news in the coming weeks as the film shoots shortly. ‘The Bourne Legacy’ comes to cinemas August 3rd, 2012.
