About.Com got chatting with Julia Stiles during her promotions for the upcoming romantic/comedy "The Prince & Me" and talk turned towards her role in "The Bourne Supremacy", the sequel to the 2002 thriller "The Bourne Identity" in which she played a CIA surveillance expert named Nikki.
How does she come back into the story? "I thought that I'd gotten out of the world of the CIA after almost being killed in the first one and Joan Allen is sort of heading the operation to find him again and she drags me off of the street and against my will kind of makes me help her find him because they think that I have more information. I was the last person to see Jason Bourne alive and they think that I have a lot more information and they make me sort of spy on him".
Did she get to work with Matt Damon properly this time around? "I have a really great scene with him in the movie where he catches me sort of spying on him, and at the risk of giving too much away, he remembers that I was the last person who saw him and so, he also wants to help me fill him in on his past, but he wants to do it without the CIA sort of observing us or having me wired. So, he drags me into the subway and is interrogating me and even holds a gun to my head and things like that. I don't want to give it all away...I'm really happy that I don't have any action scenes. Most of my stuff are more psychologically driven scenes. Matt does a lot of the action stuff".
Thanks to 'Fred'.
