Matt Damon's net worth is already much too much for the 43-year-old actor and his family but it is still expected to break barriers once the hunky producer and screenwriters heads to the big screen to reprise his famous titular role for the "Bourne" franchise in 2016.
According to Huffington Post, contrary to earlier speculations and reports that Damon will not be reprising his Jason Bourne role for the fifth installment of the franchise, the actor has already agreed to team up with "Bourne Ultimatum" director Paul Greengrass once again for another sequel to follow Jeremy Renner's non-Bourne starring role film, "Bourne Legacy."
Because of this, it is expected that Matt Damon's net worth is going to get a major lump sum addition, similar to what is expected to happen to his childhood best friend and fellow A-lister Ben Affleck's net worth once "Batman V Superman" hits theaters in 2016.
The announcement that Matt Damon is to reprise his famous big screen role does not come as a surprise at all since he has often expressed how much he really liked portraying the character, which he last played in the third installment "The Bourne Ultimatum" released in 2007.
"I've always been open to it if Paul Greengrass is the director," Damon was quoted telling CNBC in May. "We've just never been able to come up with a story. So, if any of your viewers have a story, please call Universal and submit it."
The big question now however is whether the fifth movie will present a different storyline but similar situation in the previous films or simply pick up where the third one left off.

Born on October 8, 1970, Damon started his acting career in the late 80s. Around that time he was also attending Harvard University but decided to stop without fully graduating to focus on establishing a name in the showbiz industry.
His first appearances were documented to be in small movies like "Mystic Pizza," "School Ties" and "Courage Under Fire."
Matt Damon's net worth was believed to have flourished when he got his big break by working side by side with Ben Affleck for 1997's "Good Will Hunting."
While he and Affleck received an Academy Award for Best Screenplay, Damon got his first Best Actor nomination for the film.
Following the success of "Good Will Hunting," Matt Damon's net worth continued to role with his blockbuster films such as "Saving Private Ryan" and "The Talented Mr. Ripley."
Nevertheless, it was his starring role in the Jason Bourne franchise that gave Matt Damon's net worth a major boost. Additionally, he also landed a lead role in George Clooney's "Ocean's" trilogy, which was also a blockbuster success.
Having received many award nominations, being voted as the Sexiest Man Alive in 2007 and having granted his own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, it is not surprising that Matt Damon's net worth continues to grow as time pass by.
According to CelebrityNetWorth, the Live Planet production company founder has done so many things in his acting career, his net worth is now valued at $75 million.
