Jason Bourne to, perhaps, go up against Bernal?!?

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. This is bizarre. The trades went the internet route today and totally announced a rumor. They sometimes announce things in the works, but this is the first time I've seen where they announce an actor in a big series before any negotiations have begun, without crediting some quote from the director or something.

It took me a while to get to the BOURNE movies, but when I did I really dug 'em, catching the first one on DVD and the sequel in theaters. The idea of pitting Gael Garcia Bernal against Matt Damon has me smiling a big smile. I have no idea what the story is for THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM, but I love the total against-type casting of Bernal as the main villain. Bernal's one of the best young actors around right now and we know he can play vulnerable like no one (SCIENCE OF SLEEP anyone?), but I can't wait for him to go full blown villain in a big action series. Hope this pans out. Could be great!!!
