  • Julia Stiles To Return For “Bourne 5”, Says She Was Supposed To Die In The First Movie

    Julia Stiles has confirmed that she will be reprising her role as Nicki Parsons for the next installment in the Bourne Identity franchise.

    The movie, which is being called Bourne 5 for now, already has Matt Damon on board.

    Julia Stiles will again be working with Paul Greengrass, who is writing the screenplay with Christopher Rouse. Frank Marshall will produce alongside Jeffrey Weiner.

    It’s great for Julia Stiles to be able to come back for the fifth Bourne movie, especially since she recently revealed that she was supposed to die in the first one!

    Julia Stiles said, “I was really lucky. Originally I was going to be killed in the first film. I was flipped up against a wall and my neck snapped, but they cut it together in a different way so I survived, which was lucky for me.”

    Julia Stiles has also been busy with other projects of late.

    She will also be seen in Beyond Deceit with Al Pacino and Go With Me with Anthony Hopkins.

    Julia Stiles has recently found some excitement in working on a new supernatural film set in South America called Out of the Dark.

    Julia Stiles revealed that, among other benefits, she got to practice her Spanish.

    She said, “I nearly minored in Latin American Studies at college. I speak Spanish and part of the allure of going to Colombia was to be able to work in Spanish.”

    She added, “The director would direct me in Spanish and I’d sometimes translate for the English-speaking actors.”

  • Julia Stiles, Matt Damon Ready for ‘Bourne 5’

    Julia Stiles and Matt Damon are reportedly both in for the filming of the next in the series of the Bourne spy franchise films. Tentatively called Bourne 5, Nicky Parsons and Jason Bourne are back with these actor’s reprisals.

    Alongside Matt Damon, Julia Stiles starred in The Bourne Identity, The Bourne Supremacy, and The Bourne Ultimatum. Neither appeared in The Bourne Legacy. Paul Greengrass, who directed both Supremacy and Ultimatum, is coming back to direct Bourne 5.

    Julia Stiles’ portrayal of Nicky Parsons serves as one of the major links connecting the original three Bourne movies. It makes perfect sense for her to continue playing a role in this next chapter. Nicky has deep knowledge of Jason Bourne’s psychological issues, and this knowledge would likely come into play during the Bourne 5 narrative–as featured in the script that Greengrass and Damon have written alongside Paul Greengrass’s longtime editor, Christopher Rouse.

    It’s possible that Lord of the Rings star Viggo Mortensen will join Matt Damon and Julia Stiles in Bourne 5. He’s purportedly being eyed for the role of the film’s villain. Alicia Vikander of Ex Machina fame is as possibility in a key role as well.

    Regardless of the other players, Matt Damon and Julia Stiles are said to be a done deal. Filming is set to begin next month with Bourne 5 scheduled to hit theaters in July of 2016.
