Matt Damon spoke to us ahead of the release of his latest Bourne film.

The incredibly popular franchise released the fifth film in the series and fourth featuring Matt Damon as the lead character yesterday (27th July).

Matt met up with Ents Hub reporter to talk about the character and who could play Jason Bourne next.

While he doesn't think the 'Ludlum Estate' would kill off the character he fully expects the series to be rebooted at some point, although he would quite like to play the assassin until he's 93!

The 45-year-old father of four girls said "there's no reason Jason Bourne has to be a guy" stating that when he was asked in a previous interview about his son taking over the role, he said "I don't have a son".
