“It’s difficult when you’re 45 compared to when you’re 29, but you still have to run as fast as you can. That part was a challenge but to get to revisit the people was wonderful. You’ll see what you’ve seen before (in the upcoming film) and will recognize it as a Jason Bourne movie but it feels new and of the world we’re living in today,” he added.

Directed by Paul Greengrass, Jason Bourne 5 is set to release on July 29. The movie also stars Julia Stiles and Vincent Cassel.
