Treadstone will explore the origins of the controversial program, as well as track the program in the present day pre-Jason Bourne.
As anyone familiar with the Bourne franchise will know, Treadstone is the name of the CIA Black Ops program responsible for reprogramming agents into brainwashed superhuman assassins.
As for the story, The Hollywood Reporter notes that the plot will follow sleeper agents around the globe when they’re “mysteriously awakened” in order to resume their missions.
The plot details are very interesting, and it could open the door for potential film crossovers with future Bourne films, although with the project still in pilot status, perhaps it’s best to just hope it gets a series order for now.
