The Bourne films are a series of action/thriller spy films based on the character

Jason Bourne (Matt Damon), a CIA assassin suffering from extreme memory loss
who must figure out who he is,[5] created by author Robert Ludlum. The Bourne
Legacy introduces a new character, Aaron Cross (Jeremy Renner), a Department of
Defense operative who runs for his life because of Bourne's actions in Ultimatum.
All three of Ludlum's novels were adapted for the screen, featuring Matt Damon as
the titular character in each. Doug Liman directed The Bourne Identity (2002), and
Paul Greengrass directed The Bourne Supremacy (2004) and The Bourne Ultimatum
(2007). Tony Gilroy co-wrote each film and directed The Bourne Legacy (2012).
Damon chose not to return for the fourth film. The character of Jason Bourne does
not appear in Legacy, but mention of his name and pictures of Damon as Bourne are
shown throughout the film.[6]
The series is noted for its realism, in contrast to the growing use of computergenerated imagery in the action genre.[7]
