<P> The titular character Jason Bourne does not appear in The Bourne Legacy , because actor Matt Damon chose not to return for the fourth film , due to Paul Greengrass not directing . Bourne is shown in pictures and mentioned by name several times throughout the film . Tony Gilroy , co-screenwriter of the first three films , sought to continue the story of the film series without changing its key events , and parts of The Bourne Legacy take place at the same time as the previous film , The Bourne Ultimatum ( 2007 ) . </P>
