Earlier today, Variety learned that Scott Shepherd (Bridge Of Spies) has signed on for a role in Universal's upcoming Bourne sequel, which features the return of both director Paul Greengrass and star Matt Damon (The Martian) as Jason Bourne. Shepherd will reportedly play the deputy director of the CIA, someone who will likely be a pain in Bourne's side.

In addition to his role in Steven Spielberg's latest, Shepherd has previously had roles in Steven Soderbergh's Side Effects and Rob Reiner's And So It Goes. He'll be seen next alongside Jude Law & Diane Keaton in the HBO miniseries The Young Pope.

What do you guys think of this latest addition? Sound off with your thoughts below!

Global superstar Matt Damon returns to his most iconic role as Jason Bourne in the fifth installment of Universal Pictures’ Bourne franchise. Acclaimed director Paul Greengrass (The Bourne Supremacy, The Bourne Ultimatum, Captain Phillips) also returns for this much-anticipated chapter, and Frank Marshall again produces alongside Jeffrey Weiner and Ben Smith for Captivate Entertainment. Greengrass, Damon and Gregory Goodman also produce. The action-thriller is written by Greengrass, Damon and Christopher Rouse. Julia Stiles, Alicia Vikander, Vincent Cassel and Tommy Lee Jones join Damon for the action-thriller.

Bourne 5 will feature:
Director: Paul Greengrass
Matt Damon as Jason Bourne
Julia Stiles as Nicky Parsons
Tommy Lee Jones in an undisclosed role
Alicia Vikander in an undisclosed role
Vincent Cassel in an undisclosed role
Ato Essandoh in an undisclosed role

He was good as the foil for Tom Hanks in Bridge of Spies. Really solid film to bring your dad/grandpa to.
