Based off of the domestic and international trailers we’ve seen for Green Zone, I think it’s safe to say that audiences are already expecting this to be the next installment in the Bourne franchise. Well, the first poster has just arrived for Green Zone, and it certainly doesn’t seek to correct this assumption.

You can’t exactly call this a bad move from the marketing guys. The Bourne movies have been fantastic, especially the last two installments – which just happened to be directed by Paul Greengrass, the same guy that directed Green Zone. His pairings with Matt Damon have resulted in not only critical success but box office gold, so why would Universal shy away from the comparison? Anyway, Empire’s got the exclusive on the poster, which you can check out after the jump.

The Bourne Ultimatum poster is below for comparison.

Green Zone hits theaters on March 26, 2010.
