Movie: The Matrix Resurrections is Here
The resurrection of The Matrix franchise is out now, with the latest sequel hitting the big screens around the world from December 22.
The Matrix Resurrections, released more than 20 years after the first movie came out in 1999, sees Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss reprising their roles as Neo and Trinity. This fourth movie also stars Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Priyanka Chopra, Christina Ricci, Jada Pinkett Smith and Neil Patrick Harris.
After directors Lana and Lilly Wachowski reinvented the Hollywood action film with 1999’s “The Matrix,” theatregoers were confronted with a cliffhanger at the ending of its 2003 follow-up “The Matrix Reloaded”: “To be concluded…” reads the end title card, before the movie queues up Rage Against the Machine’s “Calm Like a Bomb.”
Then “The Matrix Revolutions” followed later that year, offering what seemed to be a pretty definitive conclusion to the series’ tale of humans warring against their machine enslavers.
But now, after nearly 20 years have passed, Neo (Keanu Reeves) and Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss) are going back to where it all began. Helmed by Lana Wachowski, “The Matrix Resurrections” reunites Neo and Trinity for a new story inside the world of the Matrix, though neither hero remembers each other or their past romance together.
