"Let me guess Amazon" - Fans react hilariously as rights for the Jason Bourne franchise will reportedly be sold to another studio

It’s been almost 10 years since the last Bourne film, Jason Bourne, hit the theaters. While the movie wasn’t exactly well-received by fans, they’ve still been eagerly waiting for more installments from the beloved franchise. However, it looks like there’s been an unexpected development within the franchise.

The rights to the Jason Bourne franchise are leaving Universal Studios and are reportedly being considered for sale to another studio. Skydance, Apple, and Netflix have all expressed interest in acquiring the franchise. It’s unclear whether Matt Damon will still be involved or if a reboot is in the works. The news has left fans curious, wondering if Damon will reprise his iconic role or which actor might take over if the franchise moves forward without him.

Hilarious Fan Reactions

Fans had their own hilarious takes and theories about what might happen to the Jason Bourne franchise after the rights get sold, and they quickly took to the internet to share their reactions.

"Let me guess Amazon," a fan said.

This user is convinced that Amazon will end up winning the auction for the Jason Bourne franchise rights. After all, it’s run by the second-richest man in the world, so they might just put more money on the table than anyone else.

While fans are hoping for Matt Damon to reprise his iconic role, this fan comically reminds us that he can’t keep playing Jason Bourne until he’s 80. Although, that’s quite the edit there!

"The bourne franchise finding a new home… just like jason in every movie," pointed another.

What a coincidence - the Jason Bourne franchise is about to find a new home, just like Jason Bourne himself does in every movie. Except when he does it, he’s constantly on the run.

Now that would be an acquisition no one saw coming - the Jason Bourne franchise’s rights getting bought by none other than eBay. Would that mean we’d have to buy tickets for the new movie on eBay too?

"They’re rebooting and calling it ReBourne," another fan joked.

The sale of Jason Bourne's rights to another studio may have surprised fans with its suddenness, but it has certainly left them excited. Because you know what that means - a new Bourne film is closer to hitting theaters than ever!
