Sixteen years ago, Matt Damon became Jason Bourne. This July, he’ll reprise the action-hero role in the fifth installment of the Bourne franchise.

The trailer, in which Damon basically punches everyone, debuted in April, and now there’s more. On Monday, Universal Pictures posted an official first look at the film, including some backstage peeks at the cast and crew.

“Every airport I’m in or every time I’m walking down the street and somebody stops me, that’s the first question: ‘Are you gonna do another one of those Bourne movies?’” Damon says in the video. “I love making these movies.”

In the video, Damon also explains that the new movie finds Bourne “in a really dark place, and he’s basically pounding other human beings into oblivion just to try to cope with the thoughts in his head.”

Jason Bourne hits theaters July 29.
