Producer Frank Marshall revealed to IESB that the plan is begin shooting the fourth Jason Bourne movie next summer, for release in 2010. As reported back in February, director Paul Greengrass and star Matt Damon are set to return. Marshall also confirmed that they’ll probably be creating an original story for the movie (predicting that Bourne will be headed to South America), since creator/author Robert Ludlum only wrote three books and wasn’t involved in the later books in the series:
IESB: The Bourne series, are we going to see another one?
Frank Marshall: Oh absolutely, Bourne 4…Hopefully we’re going to be shooting next summer for release in 2010.
IESB: Do you know which way the story is headed, is it going to be the next book?
FM: No actually, there was a fourth book written, but it was not by Mr. Ludlum, so we’re probably going to take our own direction, and we’re working on what that storyline is going to be right now.

Early ‘Dark Knight’ Review + New Viral June 25, 2008 3:30 am
Posted by Rosario T. Calabria in Batman, Movies, Reviews, The Dark Knight.1 comment so far
With just over three weeks to go before the release of The Dark Knight (are you as psyched about this film as I am?) the first review has been released (the film is being selectively screened for press). Courtesy, AICN, here’s a highlight from the very encouraging review:
Heath Ledgers performance of the joker is truly one for the books. Aman of no remorse or morals who simply wants to see things burn. There is no back story or establishing the character. He is fully formed. He does have some dialogue scenes that reveal a bit of his background.Lets just say he has some issues with his father and that smile of his is rooted in a gesture of love. He is far from a caricature and has depth . He realises that without Batman he would not be. The Joker is almost more of a terrorist than criminal. He is not motivated by money. He wants to see people suffer. Its a damn shame that this was Heath Ledger’s final major performance as it shows a whole different side to him as a performer and I now know that he was endlessly talented.
Another highlight, plus a new viral, after the jump.
