'Bourne Legacy' International Trailer Shows Jeremy Renner In Action


Jason Bourne's got nothing on Aaron Cross.

Or at least that's what Universal wants us to think in the new international trailer for "The Bourne Legacy." Though it's less plot-driven than the previously released teaser, this new look at the film is plenty action packed, and that's really all we're looking for.

What this trailer shows us more than anything is that leading man Jeremy Renner was the right person to replace Matt Damon in this franchise. He has a great screen presence, and also looks pretty darn intense during his action scenes. When Edward Norton claims "Jason Bourne was just the tip of the iceberg," we're inclined to believe him.

Not too much is known about the plot of "The Bourne Legacy," but we do know that Cross is an agent of Operation Outcome -- a similar program to Treadstone but "without the inconsistency." The story picks up after the conclusion of "The Bourne Ultimatum," though it has a new cast of characters and new storyline.

It looks like Norton will be Renner's main competitor in the movie, and that's something that we're thrilled to see. Both men are intense actors in their own way, and we're expecting some explosive tension when we watch them interact on the big screen.

"The Bourne Legacy" stars Renner, Norton, Rachel Weisz, Joan Allen and Albert Finney. It storms into theaters on August 3, 2012.
