“Jason Bourne,” the fifth installment in the series of action movies starring Matt


“Jason Bourne,” the fifth installment in the series of action movies starring Matt Damon, will open in theaters Friday. Here are five facts about the film, courtesy of imdb.com:

v Returning: This will be the first time since “The Bourne Ultimatum” (2007) that Matt Damon reprises his role as Jason Bourne after concluding the Bourne trilogy. It also will be the first time for Paul Greengrass to return at the helm of a Bourne film since the second installment of “The Bourne Supremacy” (2004) and the concluding installment of “The Bourne Ultimatum” (2007).

v Name change: It will be the first Bourne film to not have the franchise’s trademark title format of The Bourne ____. This film is instead called “Jason Bourne” rather than its originally rumored title, “The Bourne Betrayal.”

v Got his wish: Matt Damon has stated numerous times that he would only return to the Bourne franchise to reprise his role as Jason Bourne if Paul Greengrass would return for directorial duties on the project. Damon and Greengrass announced their return to the franchise in November 2014 for a new installment.

v Location: Since part of the story takes place in Athens, Greece, the producers asked the Greek government for permission to shoot the film in the actual location. Due to high taxes and bureaucracy this never happened. Tenerife, in the Canary Islands, doubles as Athens in the movie.

v No to game: Matt Damon refused to voice Jason Bourne in the video game “The Bourne Conspiracy” (2008) due to its excessive violence, which means that this is the first time he’s played Bourne since “The Bourne Ultimatum” (2007).

“The Bachelorette” (8 p.m., ABC): Raise your hand if you’ve heard this plot twist before: On “The Bachelorette,” JoJo and her three remaining suitors take off for Thailand, where she realizes that, egads, she’s in love with two men.

“Rizzoli & Isles” (9 p.m., TNT): Angie Harmon apparently can both act and direct. She called the shots for the 100th episode of “Rizzoli & Isles,” which has her character going undercover in jail to draw out a brutal killer.
