Released in 2016, Jason Bourne marks Matt Damon 's return to the legendary role of the secret agent hunted by his own government. Directed by Paul Greengrass, this action film takes us back into the world of the famous character, confronting new threats while seeking to understand his past. Tommy Lee Jones joins the franchise as CIA director Robert Dewey, and Alicia Vikander plays Heather Lee, a young analyst who tries to follow in Bourne's footsteps.
Jason Bourne, still on the run after revealing the dark secrets of the Treadstone program, is relentlessly pursued by the American secret service. This new manhunt takes him from the Canary Islands to London, via Las Vegas, where he must confront a new threat orchestrated by the CIA, which seeks to put an end to his activities once and for all. At the same time, Bourne continues to uncover elements of his buried past that could change the game. CIA director Robert Dewey attempts to eliminate him, while analyst Heather Lee tries to pre-empt his moves, convinced that Bourne can still be useful.
