I saw how excited you were for such a movie treat Grace. So here are five ideas for a potential Bond and Bourne movie crossover. Both Sony and Universal are always on the lookout for the next big thing. A movie like this would not only get butts in seats but turn the spy world movies of today on its head. A billion-dollar hitter if we ever heard of one, maybe two if done right. These two spies, one current, the other former and on the run, would be a feast for the mainstream movie audience.
Pitch: Bond and Bourne together equal the only superhero movie neither DC or Marvel have ever made on the big screen. Want to wait until the Justice League and the Avengers have a crossover? I think not. Let’s beat them to the punch and show superpowers can’t beat spy finesse.
Idea One:
Bourne is on a special assignment to lift a microchip that has potentially dire consequences if it falls
into the hands of any country. His plans are to destroy it but that becomes complicated when it turns
out to be biotech based and implanted in the brain of a teenage spy (played by Neel Sethi). A tech
grab turns into a kidnapping with Bourne labeled as a member of a child trafficking ring who has
kidnapped an orphan genius from India for potentially nefarious purposes. This cover by his enemies
both surprises and upsets Bourne but in an ironic twist he uncovers plans to kill the young spy and
harvest his body for research. Turning the teenager on his side after finding out he was just an
experiment all along.

harvest his body for research. Turning the teenager on his side after finding out he was just an
experiment all along.
Meanwhile Bond enters the picture when M informs him that the British government has MI6 agents
on the lookout for an Indian teen spy with information that could be dire in the wrong hands.
Bond’s assigned to bring in the teen alive to be debriefed and put under special protection. Bond is
especially furious when he’s told that traffickers have taken the boy. When he and Bourne meet it’s a
battle royale which the teen joins in. Can they convince Bond that Bourne is not the bad guy who
betrayed his country then went into child trafficking? Is the MI6 really just interested in keeping the
young spy safe? What of those who want the boy harvested at any cost and will more countries enter
the fray to get their hands on a young supersoldier to mold into their very own? And can a hacker turn
this insanity up to a twelve?

Idea Two:
Bond is caught on tape killing several politicians on tape at a UN meeting. Problem? One of the is the
VP of the United States (Brendan Fraser) and America is out for blood. Bond was on assignment at
the time and MI6 insist that whoever did those murders could not be him. But America wants him
handed over immediately as a terrorist. Britain refuses citing that there needs to be a deeper
investigation and that one man can’t be in two places at once. Not wanting to start WW3, Bourne is
secretly found and after certain promises are made brought in to see the Secretary of Defense
(Liam Neeson). Bourne agrees to the assignment as long as he can do it on his terms and SOD
agrees on one condition. A CIA agent (Jet Li) has to go with Bourne to ensure the job is done
efficiently and Bond brought back alive without any sign of American involvement. Both spies are wary
of each other but work together to find Bond and bring a terrorist to justice. But just how tough is it
really going to be and if Bond’s possibly innocent, who actually carried out these murders?

Idea Three:
A virus is released in Britain and many become sick. The entire country is quarantined but there is
still fear this virus will spread. Talk of possibly launching airstrikes comes up from other countries
but the British government resists these ideas. However, they know that other top countries in the
world won’t sit by waiting forever and turn to MI6 to solve this problem. M reveals that they had been
given information just days before from a renegade American agent about a potential contagion
being smuggled into the country. Bond was sent to rendezvous with the agent but unfortunately
were not able to find the courier in time. What M left out was that Bond had in one of his vigilante
theatrics killed the henchman that Bourne had captured to get the information. Both were back at MI6
at each other’s throats over the failure. Bourne had informed MI6 that the virus was being transmitted
through Patient Zero. A former CIA operative, Jade Thompson (Anne Hathaway), who was left a
paraplegic after one of her missions went very wrong. Bourne had some memories of her back then
the woman was a loyal American. Plus he had his own questions since that mission was partnered
with a duo of MI6 agents. However, M denies MI6 involvement. But Bourne was not just looking to
save innocent lives but also find out what really happened on that mission. A shot from a terrorist
bullet didn’t explain Jade’s need for revenge against Britain. As the unfriendly pair are deployed back
into the red zone injected with a temporary anti-virus, they have forty-eight hours to find patient zero
or get out. Things take a turn however when Bourne starts getting sick. Bond wants to help but knows
if he stays beyond forty-eight hours, he’s stuck and if he leaves, Bourne can’t come along. Can they
find patient zero in time and untangle the web of secrets and lies that goes from the CIA right to MI6?

Idea Four:
Multiple terrorist bombs have been set off in the United States. The immediate suspect is Muslims and
unrest has taken up to the point that a mosque is blown up by a white supremacist killing the son of a
high ranking Middle-Eastern politician. The grieving father took to the airwaves and issued a fatwah
against the children of the President, Vice-President and Secretary of Defense, feeling they hadn’t
done nearly enough to protect Muslims in their country. He is removed from the newsroom and the
government decries the fatwah requesting no one take it seriously. Most Muslims are peaceful and
publicly denounce the fatwah as well as worldwide. Unfortunately some groups Muslim and otherwise
decide to take on this fatwah and twin daughters of SOD are almost murdered on a trip to Hawaii. SOD
Lee Cummings (Lucy Liu) contacts her old friend Bond requesting his help as she believes the bunker
that all the children are supposed to be sent has already been compromised. An ex-CIA agent herself
she wants to lift her kids from the convoy but needs help. Bond agrees to ignore M’s argument of
causing an international incident. When the president’s father (Reg E. Cathey) is killed shielding his
grandson, the stakes are made even higher. Bond and Lee make it to the convoy only to end up
landing in the middle of an attack and have to take all the children with them. Also, they meet up with
a vigilante Bourne who was secretly helping to protect these children since he saw them as innocents
and this fatwah as wrong. Joining this group Head of Security (Riz Ahmed) who proudly holds unto
his Muslim roots and ready to help protect these children at all costs until their enemies are defeated.
As the bombings are investigated and foes fought, it’s discovered that there’s a man behind the
bombings including the one at the Mosque. A Swedish spy who defected and wants to rule the world
after taking down the strongest countries. America is just the first country on his list. Can this strategic
puppeteer be defeated and what of the agents sent out to retrieve the children and SOD branded as a
traitor?
