The Matrix 4<\/em> is the most mysterious upcoming movie on Warner Bros.’ slate. Forget the mystery surrounding The Batman, the fact that this movie is happening is nothing short of surprising. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spoiler Alert; <\/strong>but the original Matrix<\/em> trilogy ended pretty definitively. Humans win against machines, Agent Smith virus dies, and Neo dies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since it was a successful franchise, talk of another Matrix<\/em> always seemed to come up, but never really materialized into anything substantial until August 20, 2019<\/a>, when WB officially announced that it was happening. Not only was one of the Wachowskis directing, but Keanu Reeves (Neo), Carrie-Ann Moss (Trinity), and Jada Pinkett Smith (Niobe) are also reprising their roles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since that announcement actors like Yahya Abdul-Mateen II<\/a>,\u00a0Neil Patrick Harris,\u00a0Jessica Henwick,\u00a0Jonathan Groff<\/a>,\u00a0Toby Onwumere,\u00a0Er\u00e9ndira Ibarra,\u00a0Priyanka Chopra,\u00a0Andrew Caldwell<\/a>,\u00a0Brian J. Smith,\u00a0and\u00a0Ellen Hollman<\/a> have been confirmed to be a part of this fourth installment in undisclosed roles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With an exciting diverse cast, along with the returning veterans, and Lana Wachowski directing, this movie already sounds very intriguing. Unfortunately Lana’s sibling collaborator Lilly couldn’t return, but she gives her blessing<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the technical side of things, The Matrix 4<\/em> seems like it’ll live up to the past three. Academy Award-winning cinematographer John Toll will be behind the camera<\/a> for this film, so it’ll most likely look great. According to some reports, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It looks like the film will be going back to its more practical roots by the look of these insane recent set photos and videos.<\/a> The filming has taken over San Francisco, and it looks like the action is aiming to be just as mind-blowing as the original. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
