![]() “I hope it starts a conversation - that there’s excitement about the possibilities,” said Renner, who is committed to star in a sequel should there be one, about “The Bourne Legacy.” “That would be the ultimate compliment: I can’t wait to see where this goes next.” Renner says some of his friends still mistakenly believe he’s playing Damon’s character. ![]() But Universal has struggled to create a separate identity for “The Bourne Legacy,” which focuses on a clandestine program to create superhuman soldiers. ![]() The studio wants the new film to succeed not only as a stand-alone production but also as the first entry in a potential cycle of movies. Unlike many successful series, the cerebral spy tales filled with double and triple crossings have attracted strong reviews and robust attendance from older moviegoers, who typically shy away from most big-budget summer fare.
