'The Bourne Legacy' release date changed



The release date for Universal’s The Bourne Legacy has been moved back a week, from Aug. 3 to Aug. 10, a rep for the studio confirms to EW.

Universal likely wanted to give the Jeremy Renner film – the first Bourne movie not starring Matt Damon — some breathing room after Warner Bros./Legendary’s The Dark Knight Rises.

Universal’s full statement:

Just as The Avengers demonstrated marketplace sustainability that well outpaced traditional patterns earlier this summer, the industry expects a similar trajectory for The Dark Knight Rises. Moving one week further from its release will give The Bourne Legacy an even greater opportunity to maximize its opening box-office potential. Moving to Aug. 10 will also allow us to extend valuable promotion for the film across all NBCUniversal platforms during the Olympics, which will dominate television and digital audiences beginning July 27. We are excited about this new chapter in our Bourne franchise and confident that Aug. 10 is the right date for our film and for our industry as a whole.

you know he has the cutest personality and i would be best friends with him and he's so badass and i love him but he's the human equivalent of a pug and i'm convinced anything is possible in hollywood now
sheriffgraham 24th-Jun-2012 04:47 pm (UTC)
well hey, pugs are cute too tbh

rogue 24th-Jun-2012 04:49 pm (UTC)
omgomgomg you're right

_dennis_csi_ 24th-Jun-2012 04:49 pm (UTC)
there are some pics that I find him fuckable but otherwise yeah ia with you
stellar_ball 24th-Jun-2012 04:53 pm (UTC)
When I found he had a French bulldog all I could think of was 101 Dalmations where the owners all looked like their dogs.
notoriousreign 24th-Jun-2012 05:05 pm (UTC)
lmao he totally is. Which kinda works, because pugs are cute too, just not a first glance. XD
sheriffgraham 24th-Jun-2012 04:46 pm (UTC)
as long as it's not changed for the UK/Ireland, I'm fine.
mattthew 24th-Jun-2012 04:46 pm (UTC)
makes sense to me... i don't know why they didn't think about it before.
cuteej4 24th-Jun-2012 04:50 pm (UTC)
They obviously made that release date before The Avengers. They saw that success combined with Jeremy Renner being in it and made a good choice
kaiserschmarrn 24th-Jun-2012 04:47 pm (UTC)
Well, one week ain't that bad. Nothing like what the GI Joe fans have to suffer (tho do any exist?).
cuteej4 24th-Jun-2012 04:51 pm (UTC)
Lol. I was on the verge of saying do they exist when I saw the last bit.

I'm still upset about Hansel and Gretel being pushed back 10 months.
creative_candy 24th-Jun-2012 04:53 pm (UTC)
come again? 10 months? o.O
kaiserschmarrn 24th-Jun-2012 04:57 pm (UTC)
I didn't know that about Hänsel and Gretel. Sucks, even though that movie looks like a hot mess tbh.
sgmajorshipper 25th-Jun-2012 02:52 am (UTC)
I'm pissed that it got pushed back. I was really looking forward to it.
lilyginny27 24th-Jun-2012 04:47 pm (UTC)
Damnnit! I go on vacation the 10th; I wanted to see it before I left. Boo.
thecanuckian 24th-Jun-2012 04:49 pm (UTC)
Jeremy Renner's hands bother me
stellar_ball 24th-Jun-2012 04:57 pm (UTC)
They make me all hot and bothered, being all freakishly long, they can DO things.
hawaii_bombay 24th-Jun-2012 04:58 pm (UTC)
His fingernails look weird.
natosh 24th-Jun-2012 05:40 pm (UTC)
i can't believe that i just googled his hands XD
but i agree, his fingernails look weird.
malorn 24th-Jun-2012 05:19 pm (UTC)
Hands are important to me as well, though I can't say I've even noticed Renner's hands.
brighter 24th-Jun-2012 06:05 pm (UTC)
lol, i just googled them. i guess they don't bother me because my dad has similar hands.
calumfan 24th-Jun-2012 04:50 pm (UTC)
When I read the title, I thought it had to do with the fact that they were filming reshoots like last week or something.

Whatever, I'm seeing this for Renner
ectypes 24th-Jun-2012 04:51 pm (UTC)
THE OLYMPICS MAKES EVERYTHING BETTER
creative_candy 24th-Jun-2012 04:52 pm (UTC)
oh poo...it's only a week but still.
sandstorm 24th-Jun-2012 04:55 pm (UTC)
Understandable.

I'm still miffed, but understandable.
vehiclesshockme 24th-Jun-2012 04:56 pm (UTC)
I've never seen a Bourne movie but I might watch this.
cuteej4 24th-Jun-2012 05:03 pm (UTC)
I watched the trilogy the other week. I gotta say...they're pretty boring honesty. The last one...Bourne should have died like 50 times. It was ridiculous
_dennis_csi_ 24th-Jun-2012 05:07 pm (UTC)
I liked them, give it a try. At least watch the first one
anolinde 24th-Jun-2012 05:10 pm (UTC)
The first three are so good! They get progressively better, too. Matt Damon is amazing in them.
britnik2 24th-Jun-2012 05:53 pm (UTC)
The only movies Ive ever found Matt Damon remotely hot in.
stephaniebrown 24th-Jun-2012 04:57 pm (UTC)
i'm so surprised at the fact that i find him attractive.

like, he is so not my usual type but after i saw the hurt locker, i wanted to be aaaall up on that.
