Alicia Vikander speaks about Bourne role

When it came to casting their new Jason Bourne film, Matt Damon and director Paul Greengrass had just one woman on their list.

An Oscar freshly minted on her mantelpiece and filling Angelina's boots as Tomb Raider on her radar, Swedish superstar Alicia Vikander has shot to the A-List.

She confessed she used to binge-watch the Bourne Trilogy with girlfriends, and now she's in one herself.

She spoke to Kate Rodger in Sydney as the global promo tour for Jason Bourne kicked off.
