Remember
what is real. Watch the new trailer for The Matrix
Resurrections now in theaters and on HBO Max
12.22.21.
From
visionary filmmaker Lana Wachowski comes The
Matrix Resurrections, the long-awaited next
chapter in the groundbreaking franchise that redefined
a genre. The new film reunites original stars Keanu
Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss in the iconic roles they
made famous, Neo and Trinity.
In
The Matrix Resurrections, return to a
world of two realities: one, everyday life; the other,
what lies behind it. To find out if his reality is
a physical or mental construct, to truly know himself,
Mr. Anderson will have to choose to follow the white
rabbit once more. And if Thomas Neo has
learned anything, its that choice, while an
illusion, is still the only way out ofor into
the Matrix. Of course, Neo already knows what he has
to do. But what he doesnt yet know is the Matrix
is stronger, more secure and more dangerous than ever
before. Déjà vu.
Reeves
reprises the dual roles of Thomas Anderson/Neo, the
man once saved from the Matrix to become the savior
of humankind, who will once again have to choose which
path to follow.
Moss portrays the iconic warrior Trinity or
is she Tiffany, a suburban wife and mother of three
with a penchant for superpowered motorcycles?
Yahya
Abdul-Mateen II (Candyman, the Aquaman
franchise) plays the wise and worldly Morpheus who,
as always, serves as a guide to Neo while also fulfilling
his own greater purpose on a very singular journey
of self-discovery.
Jessica
Henwick (TVs Iron Fist, Star
Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens)
plays the hacker Bugs, the proverbial white rabbit
on a mission to discover the one who sacrificed himself
for humankind--and willing to take any risk necessary
in search of the legend she idolizes.
Jonathan
Groff (Hamilton, TVs Mindhunter),
plays Thomas Andersons business partner, a slick,
confident corporate type with insouciant charm, a
disarming smile and an eye on the bottom line--everything
Mr. Anderson is not.
Neil
Patrick Harris (Gone Girl) plays Thomas
therapist, working closely with his patient to understand
the meaning behind his dreams and to distinguish them
from reality.
Priyanka
Chopra Jonas (TVs Quantico) plays
a young woman with a wisdom that belies her years
and an ability to see the truth, no matter how murky
the waters.
And
Jada Pinkett Smith (Angel Has Fallen,
TVs Gotham) returns as Niobe, the
fierce General who once fought for the survival of
Zion and who now sees to the welfare of her people
with a familiar fire in her eyes, despite a sense
of disbelief and suspicion upon Neos return.
