After nine years, Matt Damon’s Jason Bourne is back!

Universal’s Jason Bourne is eyeing the top spot at the box office, expecting to debut with $55 million-plus from 4,026 theaters.

The final weekend newcomer includes Lionsgate’s thriller Nerve – starring Emma Roberts and Dave Franco. The film, which is expected to gross $15 million over its five-day debut, follows the duo as they get sucked into a dangerous modern game of truth or dare.
