Matt Damon was surprised when he was offered The Bourne Identity. In the original novel by Robert Ludlum, Jason Bourne is a much older man. Damon didn’t think he made sense for the role. But director Doug Liman had a different idea. “He told me he didn’t want to do James Bond,” Damon said. “He saw it more as a European La Femme Nikita.” #TheBourneIdentity #MattDamon #DougLiman #Movies #MovieClips
