Bourne 6 Planned, Jeremy Renner Probably Won't Return
Critically speaking, Jason Bourne, the latest in the Bourne series from director Paul Greengrass and Matt Damon, wasn't a big success. But in Hollywood, money talks and the movie definitely made money, so there is absolutely potential for a sequel.The titular character Jason Bourne does not appear in The Bourne Legacy, as 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.
He tried to abandon the mission by leaving the boat, but an unknown shooter shot him twice in the back, sending him off the yacht into the sea and triggering amnesia, causing Webb / Bourne to forget his identity.
The Spy Is Once Again In The CIA's Crosshairs. The Bourne franchise returns for its fifth installment with Jason Bourne, but that's not the real big news. The big news is that Matt Damon has returned to the role of Bourne. Fans of Damon's forgetful spy needn't panic — Jason Bourne does not die in Jason Bourne.
Executive produced by Tim Kring (Heroes), Treadstone is USA Network's new action/espionage series set in the same universe as Jason Bourne. Jason Bourne (and Matt Damon) doesn't appear in Treadstone, nor are his present whereabouts divulged, but Bourne's prior exploits are tacitly acknowledged on the show.
Treadstone is so top-secret that several Deputy Directors of the CIA have no idea that it even exists. In the books, Treadstone headquarters is located in New York City and looks simply like a dilapidated house but is in reality a fortress, having bullet resistant glass and multiple security systems.
He first appeared in the novel The Bourne Identity (1980), which was adapted for television in 1988.

Though Treadstone is the inaugural TV spin-off of the larger Bourne universe, which began with Robert Ludlum's 1980 novel The Bourne Identity and has carried on in book form even after the author's death, it's not the first attempt to build out the series without Damon.
Matt Damon says he may return for another Bourne film. Jason Bourne is the fifth film, 14 years after the first one was made. Matt Damon told BBC News this is not his last film, even though the stunts are getting harder to do at the age of 45.
Doug Liman directed The

He was officially accepted when he murdered an unidentified man (implied to be the real Jason Bourne) without questioning. After that, he was given a new identity as Jason Bourne, and his birth identity was dropped.
On December 2, 2013, it was announced that Renner would return as Cross, Lin would both direct and produce from his production company Perfect Storm Entertainment, and the studio announced an August 14, 2015 release date.
H.M. lost his memory after surgeons removed his hippocampus, a brain structure associated with memory, in an attempt to treat his severe epilepsy. Of course, this sort of surgery would not happen today. This hallmark aspect of true memory loss is frequently absent from fictional amnesiacs, including Jason Bourne.

Premise. Treadstone explores the origin story and present-day actions of a fictional CIA black-ops program known as Operation Treadstone — a covert program that uses a behavior-modification protocol to turn recruits into nearly-superhuman assassins.
With USA's Treadstone, that subplot is turned into the main plot: Wake up a bunch of actors not named Matt Damon or Jeremy Renner and have them morph "into nearly-superhuman assassins" around the globe — North Korea, Berlin, Paris, Russia, etc. — and take people out. The missing ingredient, however, is the writing.
