20 years since the film’s original liberate, it seems we’re getting a fourth installment to the reality-questioning saga that is The Matrix.
And, thankfully, this is no remake, reboot or spin-off, but a continue of the original story with- most importantly- the return of Keanu Reeves as Neo and Carrie-Anne Moss as Trinity, the Hollywood Reporter says.
The film will be helmed by Lana Wachowski, who created the franchise with her sister Lilly. Lana has reportedly penned the new script alongside sci-fi writers Aleksandar Hemon and David Mitchell. Mitchell is the author of Cloud Atlas, another time-bending story of which Wachowski directed the film version.

Many of the ideas Lilly and I explored 20 years ago about our actuality 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.

I like it when tales got to get out into the world and then come back to you in different ways. I entail, that’s what storytelling is all about. I’m part of a bigger thing.
I don’t have any ownership over stuff like that, so whatever story anybody wants to tell, I can’t wait to hear. I hope it’s better than the original.
The original arrived here 1997, with sequels The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions both following in 2003.
The news of Reeves’ return will please devotees though, as it would be hard to imagine a Matrix movie without him. After the year he’s had with fellow dealership John Wick, and the upcoming return of Bill and Ted, it seems the 54 -year-old testifies no signs of taking a break just yet, and who could blame him.
