‘Matrix 4’ Officially a Go With Keanu Reeves, Carrie-Anne Moss and Lana Wachowski

Get ready to re-enter the Matrix.

Lana Wachowski is set to write and direct a fourth film set in the world of “The Matrix,” with Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss reprising their roles as Neo and Trinity, respectively.

Warner Bros. Pictures and Village Roadshow Pictures will produce and globally distribute the film. Warner Bros. Picture Group chairman Toby Emmerich made the announcement on Tuesday.

“We could not be more excited to be re-entering ‘The Matrix’ with Lana,” said Emmerich. “Lana is a true visionary — a singular and original creative filmmaker — and we are thrilled that she is writing, directing and producing this new chapter in ‘The Matrix’ universe.”

In addition to Wachowski, the script was also written by Aleksandar Hemon and David Mitchell. Wachowski is also producing with Grant Hill. Sources say the film is eyed to begin production at the top of 2020.

Warner Bros. has been trying for the last of couple years to find a way to get back into “The Matrix” universe, but a hold-up over producing rights slowed the project down. Over the past couple of months, the studio saw an opportunity to ramp up development, with Reeves boasting a strong summer that included box office hits “John Wick 3” and “Toy Story 4” and a script from Wachowski that drummed up excitement.

Plot details are currently unknown, as is how the role of Morpheus will be handled, originally played by Laurence Fishburne. Some sources say the role may be recast for a younger take.

The three previous films —“The Matrix,” “The Matrix Reloaded” and “The Matrix Revolutions” — have collectively earned more than $1.6 billion at the global box office. All three were written and directed by Lana and her sister, Lilly, and starred Reeves and Moss.

“Many of the ideas Lilly and I explored 20 years ago about our reality are even more relevant now. I’m very happy to have these characters back in my life and grateful for another chance to work with my brilliant friends,” Wachowski said.

The first “Matrix” had its 20th anniversary this year, marked by special screenings at select AMC locations starting on Aug. 30.

Wachowski is represented by WME, Circle of Confusion and attorney Peter Grossman. Reeves is represented by WME and Ziffren Brittenham. Moss is represented by WME, longtime manager Elizabeth Hodgson and attorney Bob Lange.

This reinforces the idea that Hollywood can't come up with anything new. BTW, Trinity died. Is Moss/Trinity only going to exist in the Matrix and not in the real world?

There's also a script for a Riddick 4: Furya. But WILL it be made is the question. I know it wasn't all that popular but I for one, loved the first 3.

It's about time. I've actually been watching youtube videos recently that go through the hidden things in the movie. I'd rather see Laurence Fishburne return instead of Carrie Anne Moss. Carrie Anne Moss had an important role, but she was one of the weakest (i.e. uninteresting) characters in the movie.

If the viagra is working you should be well over a 9.8. xkonk private msg quote post Address this user
Vin got the rights to Riddick in exchange for his Tokyo Drift cameo. He'll make a fourth one if he can scrape together the money for it.

The Matrix was originally intended to be a standalone film. It shows. Matrix 2 was only good because of the multi-million dollar freeway chase scene. Matrix 3 was utter garbage. This franchise needs to die with flip phones, and faux leather jackets.
