It's been a solid decade since we were introduced to Jason Bourne in The Bourne Identity and a full five years since we last saw the indomitable amnesiac super-assassin in The Bourne Ultimatum.  Though we may very well have seen the last of Matt Damon as Jason Bourne, this summer, the franchise will continue with The Bourne Legacy, which tells the story of a new government assassin who goes off the figurative reservation. 

Today, there's a new still from the film showcasing Jeremy Renner and Edward Norton, along with a better idea of approach involved in the Bourne-less espionage adventure, thanks to co-writer and director Tony Gilroy.

Definitely not a show about forgiveness, ABC’s saucy new hit Revenge is successfully quenching the insatiable appetites of fans that cannot wait from week to week to see what could possibly be happening next in the Hamptons. Speaking with Gabriel Mann, who portrays the naughty-but-also-nice Nolan Ross, many questions were asked and answered. Well, answered to as much of a degree as he was allowed.

Mann says of his role as Nolan, “I’ve been given a goldmine with this character.” Laughing he adds, “If I crack up and can’t get through my lines during the table reads then I know we have a winner.” In regards to reading the scripts, he says that he constantly marvels at the brilliant dialogue. “I get to say that on network television?” 

With a restrained glance to the side and a unique shake-shrug of the shoulder that only Mann can pull off, he conveys to his audience the many facets of his complex character in a way that is both charming and telling of just enough so that you are privy to the fact that there is so much more to Nolan Ross than first meets the eye. Not always aware that he is even doing this, he explains, “I’ve ingested him at this point.” Of creating a character, he adds, “You take the character and you flesh it out.  My job is to find as much humanity within this eccentric guy. Who’s the guy behind this façade and what’s his driving force?”

Before Doug Liman's The Bourne Identity came about a decade ago, the idea of Matt Damon as an unstoppably badass amnesiac assassin was sort of laughable.  How times change.  After the Bourne franchise got bigger with two subsequent installments under director Paul Greengrass, Damon and the helmer opted not to return for a fourth go-around.  Looking to capitalize on the franchise even without the central figures, Universal Pictures has gone ahead with The Bourne Legacy, which does not, in fact, feature Jason Bourne.

Instead, Jeremy Renner is taking over as a new, Bournesque character who goes by the name Aaron Cross.  As part of the end of the week image-palooza, we now have our first official look at Cross in The Bourne Legacy.  How does he look?  Almost exactly like you'd expect.  The one-time star of National Lampoon's Senior Trip* is mean-mugging with the conviction of a two-time Oscar nominee, and he's wearing a pretty cool jacket too.

Netflix's streaming Watch Instantly service is fast becoming America's favorite way to watch movies. The library of available titles is so vast and mutable that you, the avid instant watcher, could no doubt use a guide as you navigate the streaming frontier.

Luckily for you, we'll be here every Tuesday to update you on the latest titles available for instant-watching, as well as bringing attention some gems and even some enjoyable calamities out there in the instantly watchable wilds.

Doug Liman loves spies. Not the over-the-top adventure that Hollywood generally creates however. He appreciates the simple choices that can be massive to someone working for the CIA. And along came a script about Valerie Plame, a CIA operative who was outed back in 2003 which in turn ended her career with the agency.

Liman has brought Plame’s story to the big screen with Fair Game. Naomi Watts stars as Valerie and Sean Penn stars as her husband, Joe Wilson. This is a captivating story that Liman has successfully made into a thought-provoking feature film. The performances are top-notch and the story is absolutely riveting.
