The Bourne Legacy Poster is Lackluster

We were given the pretty boring image of the main star Jeremy Renner as Aaron Cross with a death stare.  Now we have been truly blessed with a poster for the film that is lackluster to say the least. The poster has nothing good to it with a slogan of "prepare for the unexpected". That is class A marketing there I tell you. Dumbest slogan in a long time. I know this movie will do amazing but come on.

Here is the lackluster poster for your viewing (I just found out it isn't a final poster.)

The Bourne Legacy hits theaters on August 3rd

CONFIRMED: Jeremy Renner Cast In The Bourne Legacy

Rumors have been going around the net for a few weeks about who will be in the new Bourne film. The wild ideas of casting an unknown as the new agent or going with Oscar Issac (Sucker Punch). Then came the best idea/rumor with getting Jeremy Renner to star. 

Confirmed: Jeremy Renner has been attached to be main character in the new Bourne film The Bourne Legacy. 

The film will "steal" its name from the fourth book in the series, but will not have anything to do with the story. The film will not be a prequel, reboot, or sequel to the matt damon films. It will simply just follow another hero in a stand-alone film. 

Renner will film The Bourne Legacy after he finishes The Avengers later this year

Daily Movie News

It's Tuesday time for Daily Movie News.

* Director Paul Greengrass (Bourne 2 and 3) has opted out of Bourne 4, which has already been in development hell. The most likely reason is that Universal has hired two writers to pen a script. George Nolfi who co-wrote Bourne 3 and working with Damon on another film. The second writer was hired without the directors consent. That writer is Josh Zetumer, who is a studio favorite and on the "Blacklist" of writers they use alot. Due to Greengrass's friendship with the star, he may return at a later date.

* Modern Warfare 2 director Keith Arem will make his feature directorial debut on the action/thriller Frost Road. The film centers on a young man who awakens from a car accident to discover he one of the few survivors in the aftermath of a mysterious outbreak that struck a small coast town on the East Coast. Somehow immune to the contagion, he tries to save the remaining survivors as he struggles to prevent the deadly wave from spreading across the planet. Arem also wrote the script.

* Director Todd Phillips (The Hangover) says that The Hangover 2 script is half done. He is keeping the plot under wraps for now, and promises that it won't rehash the events in the first film. Also, he said its not the Las Vegas setting that was funny, but the 3 main characters.

* Summit Entertainment has acquired Ben Magid's spec script Invasion. The film opens with a wicked subway accident in which the survivors (protagonists) climb from the wreckage to find, now "snowy", city in ruins. What they encounter topside is bodies, mobs of people in a state of panic and acidic "goo". Eli Roth and Eric Newman will help steer the project.

* Actor Jeremy Renner (The Hurt Locker) is rumored to star as Hawkeye in Marvel's highly anticipated adaptation The Avengers. No director is attached at the moment. The film is targeted for a may 4th, 2012 release.

* Actor Ryan Reynolds (X-Men Origins) said that the Green Lantern film he is attached to star isn't a labored Origin film that picks up in third act and some of the best parts don't have him in costume. Martin Campbell (Casino Royale) is directing for 2011 release.
