On the Cast:
“Top to bottom we have proper actors all the way through our movie from the biggest parts to the smallest parts. It’s something we put a lot of energy into we spent a lot of time making sure the actors feel comfortable and we really wanted people to be apart of our show. I’m as proud of our cast as anything it the movie.” - Tony Gilroy
On being apart the Bourne franchise:
“I was a big fan of the first three Bourne films. I felt I was in safe hands because Tony Gilroy as you know wrote the first three Bourne movies and and wrote and directer this so I feel like he’s the architect of the whole Bourne universe and whole Bourne mythology.” - Rachel Weisz
“It was really fun, really fun I love the films and I’m a huge fun of Tony Gilroy’s the director so everything about it was fun to me.” - Edward Norton
“I feel lucky, I feel honoured, I feel blessed to be working. I hope I gave them all and more of what they wanted. I love that challenge that responsibility and it’s the most fun I’ve had on two feet in a very long time, but don’t tell anybody even though it was a lot of work it was a lot of fun.” Jeremy Renner
