You\u2019ve undoubtedly heard by now, but Warner Bros. has announced that a 5th<\/sup> entry into THE MATRIX is in development. I\u2019m not sure what else to say about that, other than it seems completely unnecessary. I didn\u2019t know what to expect from the last movie, THE MATRIX RESURRECTIONS. I was cautiously optimistic, because I loved the original trilogy, but on that same note, I didn\u2019t understand why it was happening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ultimately, felt like it didn\u2019t need to happen. Though my memory of the movie, it was clear that the 4th<\/sup> movie was going to happen with or without the Warchowski Siblings. I mean, they pretty blatantly worked that note into the movie. Which one could only assume is why Lana Warchowski returned to direct, though her sister declined to return as she felt she said what she needed to with the original movies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But in geeking out moment, I remember thinking Lana should have just let it go & let someone else have a take with the franchise. Which, ironically, is sort of what\u2019s happening with this 5th<\/sup> entry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For this next outing, Drew Goddard (THE MARTIAN, THE CABIN IN THE WOODS, DAREDEVIL) will be writing and directing with Lana Warchowski serving as executive producer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No details have been released for this next chapter. Nor is it known if Keanu Reeves or Carrie Ann-Moss will return to their roles. Not to mention the new cast that was introduced in RESURRECTIONS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For myself, I love me some sci-fi and would love to see what Goddard could do in this universe, but if the last movie is any indication, THE MATRIX\u2019s time has passed. I\u2019ll gladly concede if I\u2019m wrong. But, as one would assume, Warner Bros. is clearly excited for this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the Warner Bros. Motion Pictures President of Production, Jesse Ehrman:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Drew came to Warner Bros. with a new idea that we all believe would be an incredible way to continue the Matrix world, by both honoring what Lana and Lilly began over 25 years ago and offering a unique perspective based on his own love of the series and characters\u2026<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Ehrman continued\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

The entire team at Warner Bros. Discovery is thrilled for Drew to be making this new \u2018Matrix\u2019 film, adding his vision to the cinematic canon the Wachowskis\u2019 spent a quarter of a century building here at the studio.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
