It has been eight years since super-soldier Jason Bourne disappeared at the end of 2007's "The Bourne Ultimatum". "The Bourne Legacy" continued the franchise with a new character and a new star (Jeremy Renner) in 2012, but soon, Matt Damon will start production of the fourth film featuring Jason Bourne, due out in July 2016.

The untitled Next Bourne chapter is locked in for a July 5, 2016 release date, but there remains the question regarding what that means for the future of Jeremy Renner's Bourne character, Aaron Cross.

We can maybe bet on that we will either get a Renner-centric Bourne movie at another point in the future, or Renner's character will be joining up with Matt Damon's in the next film.

And the movie ends in Las Vegas, the most grotesque incarnation of..." said Matt Damon to BuzzFeed.
