Hidden amongst a report from Universal and their future dealings, Variety is reporting that Damon will be back for a fourth installment of Bourne.

From variety: “More recently, Shmuger and Linde landed Paul Greengrass and Matt Damon for a fourth “Bourne” movie, even though the director and star seemed ready to wrap it up after three pics.”

Does this really come as a surprise to anyone? To me, keep going. The third film grossed almost as much if not more than the first two combined. Don’t stop the money machine from working – AS LONG AS – you keep the overall look and feel of the film the same.

I always hated how my beloved “The Neverending Story” became a part of a series of three films of which two of them were made my a 13 year old. (Not really made by a 13 year old, just looked that way) Keep the actors and the staff the same in a winning combination and you have something great – separate any of the above and you could have something horrible on your hands.

And yes I slipped in a reference to Wolfgang Peterson’s greatest work!
