Jason Bourne

Jason Charles Bourne is a fictional character and the protagonist of a series of novels by Robert Ludlum and subsequent film adaptations. He first appeared in the novel The Bourne Identity, which was adapted for television in 1988. The novel was very loosely adapted in 2002 into a feature film under the same name and starred Matt Damon in the lead role.
The character has appeared in twelve sequel novels; the most recent were written by Eric Van Lustbader, with the latest published in 2014. Along with the first feature film, The Bourne Identity, Jason Bourne also appears in two sequel movies The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum, both with Damon again in the lead role. Jeremy Renner stars in the fourth film of the franchise, The Bourne Legacy, released in August 2012. Damon stated in interviews that he would not do another Bourne film without Paul Greengrass, who had directed the second and third installments.

For <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/most-macho-action-hero/jessica-bedewi" target="_blank">action heroes</a>, a sense of humor is a nice touch, as are wardrobe sensibilities (it takes serious panache to look good in a sweaty, blood &amp; grease stained tank top.) But really, if your hero can <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/times-action-heroes-shouldnt-have-survived/jessica-bedewi" target="_blank">beat the odds</a> and save the day when under the gun, all while retaining a clear enough head to have a snappy bon mot for the occasion . . . that&#39;s all that matters.

Imagine Brad Pitt as Neo or Jason Bourne.

Those are just two huge&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/brad-pitt-movies-and-films-and-filmography/ranker-film" target="_blank">roles Brad Pitt</a> turned down. Of course, no one is going to cry for the acclaimed actor&rsquo;s lost movie roles. Even Pitt himself has a great attitude about passing on films that went on to be blockbusters. What other huge movie roles did the Academy Award-winning actor decide to pass on?

Pitt has had the kind of Hollywood career most&nbsp;actors can only dream of. He has been able to take on roles in nearly every genre and every budget. Pitt can shine in arthouse films made by modern-day auteurs like Terrence Malick&#39;s&nbsp;The Tree of Life and play the matinee movie star in big blockbusters like the Ocean&#39;s trilogy.

But not every career decision Pitt has made has turned into a home run. He passed on The Bourne Identity for Spy Game. He took the red pill when it came time to sign on the dotted line for The Matrix. And, he had the opportunity to appear in one of the seminal films of the 21st&nbsp;century.

Read about all the roles the Se7en star walked away from. Some turned out to be great career decisions, others not so much. While you&#39;re at it, vote up the movie roles you&#39;re surprised Brad Pitt turned down.

In the age of the superhero movies, it's easy to forget sometimes that there are tough guys who don't need to hide behind superpowers or a super suit. For every superhero Superman, Batman or even Robocop, we have a James Bond, Han Solo, Jason Bourne and John McClane willing to chase bad guys. These tough guys need to rely only their brains, brawn and the occasional weapon or two to foil the plots of bad guys. Some of the most legendary action heroes are just regular guys, military personnel or cops that get caught up in a tough situation and fight their way out of it.Sometimes that can mean rescuing a group of hostages or even family members or femme fatale. Other times that could be defending someone's honor or even protecting his country from the threat of total annihilation. While having a super powers or super suit would make things infinitely easier for these tough dudes, what makes them so endearing to audiences is that some of the men on this list could be any of us, depending on how we react in a particular situation.Vote for your favorite movie tough guy on this Ultimate List. These are some of the biggest, baddest guys in the history of <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/roger_s-top-100-and-tough-guy-movies/roger-royce?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">tough guy films</a> and are played by some of the most prominent action stars.
