A screenplay for the latest Bourne Identity film will reportedly be ready by June.

Universal Pictures had initially planned to release the fourth Jason Bourne movie by the summer of 2010, but it will now be released a year later.

"Bourne 4 is in the works for summer 2011," producer Frank Marshall said on his Twitter page. "George Nolfi is the writer of Bourne 4, [and] should have a draft by June."

It is reported that star Matt Damon’s project Green Zone, a drama set in Iraq, was greenlit as part of a deal that secured his return to the Bourne franchise.

The latest espionage thriller will not be based upon a Robert Ludlum novel, but from the original screenplay.
