Do I have to watch The Bourne Legacy to watch Jason Bourne?
I just found out there's another Bourne Series, but it looks unoriginal. I'm going to be busy and I want to watch Jason Bourne in the cinema before I do, but I'm not sure if I can skip The Bourne Legacy.
Is The Bourne Legacy canon? Can I skip it and pretend there isn't a 4th movie? Would it continue off the 3rd movie?
Best Answer
I watched Jason Bourne in the cinema, and it continued normally off The Bourne Ultimatum exactly as a canon episode should skip the storyline of a filler.
The Bourne Legacy is like a filler, you can skip it. It continued after The Bourne Ultimatum, I didn't have any trouble.
TL;DR: You can skip The Bourne Legacy and watch Jason Bourne.
