Matt Damon's Jason Bourne may enjoy five screen incarnations even though Robert Ludlum wrote only three books about the forgetful assassin.

Producer Frank Marshall told MTV News that the series may run to “maybe five films…At some point he’s gotta find out who he is.” However, it will be the films' star who will ultimately affect Bourne's future.

The Bourne Supremacy director Paul Greengrass is back at the helm for The Bourne Ultimatum, based on Ludlum's last book featuring the character, which will begin filming on August 1, 2006.

The final book sees Bourne forge a temporary alliance with the KGB when he is targeted by an aging terrorist.
