The trailer for Jason Bourne has arrived. Matt Damon is Bourne again.

Alex Abad-Santos is a senior correspondent who explains what society obsesses over, from Marvel and movies to fitness and skin care. He came to Vox in 2014. Prior to that, he worked at the Atlantic.

After a brief hiatus, Matt Damon is Jason Bourne in Jason Bourne, the fifth installment of the Bourne franchise. Damon sat out the fourth movie in the franchise, and let Jeremy Renner take the wheel in 2012.

Now, Damon and fellow Bourne stalwart Julia Stiles are back to give us another tale about the super soldier. This time around, Jason Bourne remembers everything. Or thinks he remembers everything. But as Stiles's Nicky reminds him, there's a difference between what he remembers and what everyone else knows.

"Remembering everything doesn't mean you know everything," she says.

The trailer then gives us a good look at the bone-crunching fight scenes and glass-shattering action sequences this franchise is known for, Tommy Lee Jones looking panicked, and a shirtless, hulked out Damon. And, yes, there's even an Edward Snowden name-drop.

Jason Bourne will be released in theaters on July 29.
