Matt Damon is considered the face of the Bourne film franchise, and rightfully so, but he was not the first actor to step inside the shoes of the series’ titular character, Jason Bourne. Based on Robert Ludlum’s novel of the same name, The Bourne Identity became one of the most influential action movies of the mid-aughts that went on to inspire other long-running action franchises like Mission Impossible and James Bond with its across-the-globe spy drama setup, realistic fight scenes, white-knuckling car chases, and a minimalist yet effective storyline. Considering the first movie’s success, it is not surprising that it was followed up with four sequels and one spin-off.
