Universal have got themselves the exclusive rights to the Jason Bourne character and first look at other Robert Ludlum novels, according to Variety.
The deal with Ludlum Entertainment paves the way for more installments in the Bourne saga, which was originally envisioned as a three-picture series but has become Universal’s answer to James Bond.
After the first three films grossed a total of more than $1 billion worldwide, Universal signed Matt Damon and director Paul Greengrass for a fourth film that George Nolfi is writing. The film is expected to be readied for the summer of 2010.
