TRACY BROWN: This is a bit of a trick question.
Now Lana returns to solo-direct, co-scripting with David Mitchell and Aleksander Hemon a fourquel that peers into the looking glass, all the way around and back upon itself, with the help of faces both familiar (Keanu! Carrie-Anne Moss! Jada Pinkett-Smith!) and new (Jessica Henwick! Yahya Abdul-Mateen II! Jonathan Groff!) in a chapter set 60 years after the events of the third film. confirmed that a Wachowski-led continuation was in the works. 22 in the age of Omicron, in theaters and streaming on HBO Max, “ The Matrix Resurrections” is an enticing work of nostalgia for those whose minds exploded watching Keanu Reeves’ hacker hero fall down the rabbit hole only to wake up in a grimy machine dystopia as Neo, the fated cyberpunk savior of humanity, in the original “The Matrix.” Next came 2003’s well-received “ The Matrix Reloaded” (aka the one with the rave scene) and 2003’s not-so-well-received “ The Matrix Revolutions” (the one with no rave scene - you do the math), pushing the franchise’s worldwide grosses over $1.6 billion. Four films, one “Animatrix,” video games and two decades of enormous cultural influence later, the franchise borne of Lana and Lilly Wachowski’s 1999 sci-fi opus has rebooted its own ending yet again - and its latest entry, featuring the return of Neo, Trinity, big action and even bigger new ideas, is arguably its most grandiose and divisive entry yet. As a wise Oracle once said, “Everything that has a beginning has an end.” Well, maybe she meant everything but the “Matrix” movies.
