"Producer Frank Marshall has revealed that the next installment of the Bourne franchise will not feature Matt Damon.  The filmmaker clarified an earlier comment that it was his &amp;quot;dream&amp;quot; for Renner and Matt Damon to star in an installment of the movie series together.  Indiewire reports that at a recent press day for the upcoming film The Bourne Legacy Marshall explained: &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;re gonna follow Jeremy&amp;#039;s character. But everything else is wide open.  &amp;quot;That&amp;#039;s the great thing about where we are now, the table is set to go any direction we want to, but we will, for sure, follow Jeremy and Rachel and see what happens.&amp;quot; The new film will serve as an expansion on the first three Bourne movies, this time focusing on a new hero played by Renner who is affected by the events of the earlier films.  The Bourne Legacy is due for release on August 10 in the US and August 13 in the UK.
