Tony Gilroy’s first stab at directing one of his Bourne scripts – Jeremy Renner-starring spin-off **The Bourne Legacy **– is looking more and more like a reunion for alumni of the franchise. The latest old hand to step aboard? Scott Glenn, who will return as CIA director Ezra Kramer.
Glenn is joining fellow repeat offenders Albert Finney and Joan Allen, who also recently signed on to the movie.
Renner will star as another assassin, this time from a program even more deadly and corrupt than Bourne’s Treadstone, looking to put together the pieces of his life.
He’ll be working alongside the likes of Edward Norton, Rachel Weisz, Oscar Isaac and Stacy Keach.
But that’s not the only gig Glenn has picked up. He’s also signed on for Precious director Lee Daniels’ sultry new thriller The Paperboy. That one finds Matthew McConaughey as a reporter who heads back to his Florida hometown to investigate the case of a death row inmate (John Cusack). There, he gets involved in sexy and dangerous times. Glenn will crop up as WW James, the man behind the local newspaper.
