on the Sunrise breakfast show in her native Australia, but when the presenters began quizzing Isla about her husband, British comedian Sacha Baron Cohen, she made it clear she was uncomforta­ble with their line of questionin­g.

Asked by co-host Samantha Armytage if the actor “reads to the kids in funny voices”, the 40-yearold pointedly responded, “He’s not here doing the interview. I don’t like talking about my private life.”

Isla then quickly tried to smooth over the awkward incident, simply adding, “I think there’s a lot of mischief that goes on in our house and a lot of fun.” in for the fourth instalment as new character Aaron Cross.

Filmmaker Paul, who directed two of Matt’s original movies, came back on board for the latest film, and admits adding Jeremy to the cast didn’t cross his mind.

“Never a considerat­ion for this project,” he told cinemablen­d. com. “Jeremy is a great actor. I just wanted to tell a Jason Bourne story. That’s all I wanted to tell, and that was all I was going to make. As for what happens in the future, frankly that’s not my job.”

There have been numerous reports that Jeremy will be getting his own sequel, with Justin Lin attached to direct it. Universal were said to have been working on a script before Matt and Paul confirmed their returns to the franchise.

Jeremy has also previously said he’d be up for a crossover with Aaron Cross and Jason Bourne.

“Yeah, I mean in two seconds. I love that world. I love the character. If they want to do that, I’m in. there’s no ‘no’ coming from this direction,” he told screenrant.com in 2015.

However producer Frank Marshall isn’t so sure the two protagonis­ts will ever meet on the big screen.

“They’re still two different projects, two different films,” he told slashfilm.com.

Jason Bourne was released in U.K. cinemas on July 27 and in the U.S. two days later.
