Although many critics had hoped The Bourne Ultimatum would be seriously considered for a Best Film award, the thriller did walk away with three statues at Sunday’s Academy Awards. (The movie won for Best Film Editing, Best Sound Editing and Best Sound mixing.) Now it appears the Bourne series could have a another chance at even more nominations.
According to Variety, Universal is already planning a fourth installment for the action franchise. Better yet - director Paul Greengrass and Matt Damon will also be on board. This news comes as surprise to many. Even though the trilogy definitely had an audience and respect, it appeared that the story could have run its course. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly back in August, Damon admitted that the long production was basically being written on the fly.
No projected release date has been announced yet. Both Greengrass and Damon have other commitments to attend to first.

Star Trek Movie Delayed Until Next Year

Well, it looks like we’re going to have to wait a little longer to beam anyone up.
Those who made it out to see Cloverfield in the past few weeks got a sneak peek at another J.J. Abrams production: Star Trek. (If you haven’t seen the clip yet, you can view it after the jump.) Unfortunately, a major part of that trailer is now no longer true.
The highly-anticipated prequel/sequel was slated to be released ‘Christmas 2008’. What it should have said was ‘December….Give Or Take a Few Months.’
According to Variety, the movie’s premiere will remain ‘under construction’ until May 8, 2009.
The film was simply part of a major reshuffling in Paramount‘s calendar. In most cases, a changed date usually signals bad news; that’s not the case with Trek. In fact, the studio believes the movie will benefit from this shift.
Actors involved in the next installment include Tyler Perry, Winona Ryder, Zoe Saldana, Eric Bana, Zachary Quinto and Leonard Nimoy.
