With brand new villains, and Jeremy Renner’s Aaron Cross still waiting for some sort of revival himself, the Bourne franchise needs to sort itself out internally.
Pulling from two different pools of Ludlum’s works may get confusing for the movie viewing public, so a strategy to either merge the two halves, or separate them into two easily marketed, yet unique, entities will have to be discussed and decided upon.
On top of any sort of work the franchise may do on continuity within, it’ll also have to take into account the fact that Universal is building a cinematic universe with Bourne author Robert Ludlum’s other works, and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson in the lead.
