This still from MTV.com doesn't give anything away though in the form of what the film will be like but it does look like whatever is happening in the still though it's intense.The other scanned still that came though to iamrogue.com courtesy of Hey U Guys.co.uk does offer a little bit more. I think as it does suggest that there are going to be some more cool action sequences more like the one in 'The Bourne Ultimatum', (if your not sure which this one is I'm on about here, fear not and read on as I'll help you fill in the blanks) it's the one where Matt Damon is on a motorbike in Tangiers, India with Nicki who used to work in Treadstone as the person who organised logistics and he has to save her from being killed by another assasin called 'Dev' and in the process he jumps from one house's balcony to another through the balcony windows and runs through the house to then run on the roof of other houses to find 'Dev' is so he can stoop him from killing Nicki.
So I think it's fair to say that Tony and Dan Gilroy have tried to keep the same tone for the film as Matt Damon's Jason Bourne films had in them,-this being that the writing was slick, clever and there was intense, slick, clever fight scenes as well as action scenes, especially with the fight scene in 'The Bourne Identity' where Jason Bourne and Marie went to his Paris apartment and there was an assasin by the code name of monkey who tried to kill Jason Bourne but Bourne used a BIC Biro to defend himself before the guy jumped off a balcony to fall onto the street below.-.
So it looks like writer and director Tony Gilroy has tried to make a film with the existing cast members of: Joan Allen (Pam Landy), Scott Glenn (Ezra Kramer), Albert Finney (Dr. Albert Hirsch), David Strathairn (Noah Vosen) and Corey Johnston (Wills Noah's secretary) and with some new faces: Jeremy Renner (Aaron Cross), Oscar Isaacs (no.3), Stacey Keach (Turso), Rachel Weisz (Martha) and Edward Norton (Byer) that can stand alone from Matt Damon's 'Bourne' films but with all the slick intensiveness of the original films.
Anyhew...I digress if you want to find out more about the film then why not head on over to either the official website:
http://www.thebournelegacy.net/
Or go to the Bourne Legacy UK Facebook website...now here is where I am very confused as you may be wondering like myself when this will be coming into UK cinemas as it always frustrates me that films are shown across the pond in USA first and we here in the UK have to wait ages for it or for the film to come out on Blu:Ray or DVD!
Well thanks to IMDb I can now tell you when the UK release date is for this film, the 13th August-which I might add is one of the films that I can't wait to see as at the moment I can't stop watching the trailer for this as it looks sooo good-.
And I also have to say that if you are as big a fan of these films then I suggest you take a few minutes out of your day and watch 'Bourne Vivaldi', as I watched this it took me right back to those films and got me even more excited about 'The Bourne Legacy' than before as it reminded me of the first film and how tense and exciting this was, with the quick hand to hand combat fighting and how good Matt Damon was at playing Jason Bourne's character of being part of a program named Treadstone that was suffering from amnesia after being shot at and falling into the Mediterranean Sea and then only knowing that he can '...run flat out for 1/2 hour before his hands start to shake...', tie knots, speak different languages etc but he has no idea who he is, and every time he thinks he's getting closer to finding out who he is with finding out he is an assassin he just finds out that he is further away from the truth...with finding out about Treadstone but not knowing who or what this is and what it has to do with him.
I can't wait for this now I know what the release date for this film is and I can't wait forthe many more stills and other things that will enevtiably get leaked before this film comes out!
