Matt Damon has disappointed fans of the 'Bourne' franchise (ok, maybe just me then!) by confessing that he and Paul Greengrass are still writing the follow-up, meaning the fourth installment of the Robert Ludlum-inspired series is probably still at least several years away.

He admits:

"Personally, selfishly, we'd all really like to do it, but we are really serious about trying to get the story and the script right because the only thing more disappointing than not having another one of these movies is - for us and for movie fans - to make one that isn't good. Everyone would say, 'They should have quit after three.' And we'd feel that way too. We don't have the script yet, but hopefully we'll all be shooting in 18 months or so."

Hmmm, well I guess he's right - these are my favourite films, so I don't want them ruined with some half-baked script. With Matt on the case, I'm sure we aren't gonna be disappointed!! :-)
