Published Friday, Jan 6 2012, 10:29 GMT | By Simon Reynolds | 9 comments
The first image of Jeremy Renner in The Bourne Legacy has been revealed.
The espionage thriller sees Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol star Renner play Aaron Cross, an agent from a covert government programme similar to the Treadstone facility that trained Jason Bourne (Matt Damon).
The first look at Renner's character Cross was released by USA Today.
Renner and writer/director Tony Gilroy have replaced Matt Damon and Paul Greengrass on the Bourne franchise, although there is scope for Damon to return in the future.
"This one still has to be successful, but maybe eventually Matt Damon and I could do one together," Renner said. "That would be kick-ass. I love Matt."
Edward Norton, Oscar Isaac, Rachel Weisz, Joan Allen and Albert Finney will co-star in The Bourne Legacy, which opens in cinemas in August 2012.
