Джейсон Борн: Мұрасы

2004 novel by Eric Van Lustbader

The Bourne Legacy is a 2004 spy fiction thriller written by Eric Van Lustbader. It is the fourth novel in the Jason Bourne series created by Robert Ludlum and the first to be written by Lustbader. He has also written other novels in the series, The Bourne Betrayal, The Bourne Sanction, The Bourne Deception, The Bourne Objective, The Bourne Dominion, The Bourne Imperative, The Bourne Retribution, The Bourne Ascendancy, The Bourne Enigma, The Bourne Initiative and The Bourne Nemesis.

George Nolfi, who co wrote the screenplay for the Bourne Ultimatum film, was to write the screenplay for a fourth film. Matt Damon was also attached to the project from the start, and Julia Stiles as well as Joan Allen had been asked to join the project, with Paul Greengrass slated to return as director. However, in November 2009 Greengrass said he wasn't interested in directing it, and soon afterwards Matt Damon announced that he would not make the film without Greengrass. On June 9, 2010, it was announced that Tony Gilroy would be writing and directing a movie entitled The Bourne Legacy that would have a 2012 release date. The new film would have nothing but the title in common with Van Lustbader's novel, and would be a side story with a new character "in the mold of Bourne", dealing with the ramifications of the events in the third film. Gilroy also stated that he didn't rule out a future return by Damon or Greengrass. The film was released in theaters on August 10, 2012.
