In the 2004 film 'The Bourne Supremacy', what is the name of the Russian city where a major chase scene takes place?

The story behind the answer

In The Bourne Supremacy, the major chase scene takes place in Moscow. The sequence follows Jason Bourne as he travels to the Russian capital to find Irena Neski, whose parents he helped kill during an earlier operation.

The pursuit begins after assassin Kirill locates Bourne. Bourne escapes in a stolen taxi while Kirill follows, producing the film’s famous collision-filled car chase. Bourne eventually forces Kirill’s vehicle into a concrete divider, leaving him seriously wounded.

The scene is associated with Moscow in the story, although some supposed Moscow locations were filmed in Berlin. The production shot portions of the chase and the film’s ending in Moscow, while much of the Berlin material was filmed around Berlin itself. The sequence was widely recognized as one of the film’s signature action set pieces.

A common mix-up is confusing the chase’s location with the film’s opening and middle settings: The Bourne Supremacy begins in Goa, India, and spends much of its runtime in Berlin before moving to Moscow.
