The post Drew Goddard is Developing the Fifth “The Matrix” Film for Warner Bros. appeared first on thestarsworldwide.com.
]]>Goddard is an Oscar-nominated screenwriter, whose filmography includes The Martian and The Cabin in the Woods, and he’s looking forward to putting a spin on one of his favorite franchises.
“It is not hyperbole to say The Matrix films changed both cinema and my life. Lana and Lilly’s exquisite artistry inspires me on a daily basis, and I am beyond grateful for the chance to tell stories in their world,” said Goddard in a statement.
Not much is known about the plot at this point in time, but it will most likely put a new twist on the franchise without straying too far from its roots. According to Jesse Ehrman, Warner Bros Motion Pictures’ president of production, Goddard’s new take will “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.”
Lana Wachowski will return as the executive producer of The Matrix 5, which will make the first film in the franchise she won’t direct. It’s unclear if the original cast members Keanu Reeves, Carrie Anne-Moss, and Laurence Fishburne will be back as Neo, Trinity, and Morpheus.

“If I had to cast a ballot – no, not a ballot, a vote – I would say that Lana [Wachowski] would not do another Matrix,” Reeves said when asked about a possible sequel to Resurrections.
This is in line with what the movie’s producer James McTeigue recently said in his interview with Collider.
“We’ve got no prequel in mind. We’ve got no sequel in mind. We’ve got no further trilogy,” McTeigue explained.
Still, this might not be enough to squash fans’ hopes for another The Matrix movie since Resurrections itself came unexpectedly. It was previously believed that the story of The Matrix franchise was done with the third movie, The Matrix: Revolutions and that the creators of the franchise, Lana and Lilly Wachowski, rejected the idea of continuing it for years before the fourth movie was announced.
The Matrix: Resurrections came out on December 22, 2021 and was released simultaneously in cinemas and on the HBO Max streaming service. The movie has grossed $68 million at the box office so far while receiving mixed reviews from the audience and the critics.
