Two weeks ago, "[url="http://www.mtv.com/movies/movie/382540/moviemain.jhtml"]Bourne Legacy[/url]" star [url="http://www.mtv.com/movies/person/166913/personmain.jhtml"]Jeremy Renner[/url] revealed a bit too much when he [url="http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2011/11/22/jeremy-renner-unveils-key-bourne-legacy-details/"]opened up to [i]Empire[/i][/url] about his upcoming role in the action reboot. He told the British movie magazine that his character's name is Aaron Cross and said "It's that same deal, it's just a new set of agents with a different leash."

We spoke with Frank Marshall, one of the producers for the next 'Bourne' movie, at the New York premiere of "[url="http://www.mtv.com/movies/movie/454865/moviemain.jhtml"]War Horse[/url]." The producer spoke briefly about what's different this time around and how Renner may have already given too much away.

"Well, Jeremy's going to be in it, and Jeremy's already said too much about it, but I can tell you it really is the exact same world as all the other three 'Bourne's have been," Marshall said. Casting news had more or less confirmed as much, since both [url="http://www.mtv.com/movies/person/925/personmain.jhtml"]Joan Allen[/url] and [url="http://www.mtv.com/movies/person/20762/personmain.jhtml"]Albert Finney[/url] are returning to reprise their roles from earlier in the series.

Marshall said that Aaron Cross works nicely into the already existing world, but fans can expect some changes when the film hits theaters in August of next year.

"We have a new character that Jeremy plays that fits right in. You're just seeing an expanded world from what we had before," Marshall said. "We'll have all the same elements that we had in the other three movies, and it's even bigger."
