Ato Essandoh has joined Universal's upcoming Bourne 5, which features the return of both Paul Greengrass as director and Matt Damon as Jason Bourne. Details about his character are being tightly kept under wraps.

Essandoh is probably best known for his roles on CBS' Elementary and on BBC America's Cooper. He's also appeared in several films, including Django Unchained, Blood Diamond, Hitch, Get Him To The Greek, and Garden State. He'll next be seen in Martin Scorsese's upcoming HBO drama Vinyl.
