Though the last Matrix movie was basically a warning about corporations sucking the life out of iconic pieces of subversive IP, Warner Bros. Discovery is already going back to the well.
Deadline reports that The Martian writer Drew Goddard has been tapped to pen and direct another Matrix movie executive produced by Lana Wachowski. Currently, the new film has no title or projected premiere date, and there’s been no announcement as to whether franchise stars like Keanu Reeves, Carrie-Anne Moss, Laurence Fishburne, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, or Jessica Henwick will return.
Why? They didn’t seem to want to the last time they made a movie?
A previous article about this I saw said the Wachowskis weren’t involved with this one, but this article says Lana is executive producer so now IDK.
I share your confusion
Speculation abounds. Probably way too early to say anything definitely at the moment.
Doesn’t stop people from trying, though.
