Keanu Reeves spent three movies fighting to free himself from The Matrix. Eighteen years after the last Matrix movie — Matrix Revolutions — Reeves is excited to take the blue pill this time and return to his legendary role of Neo.
In a recent interview with Variety, Reeves revealed why — after all this time — he’s returning:

Lana Wachowski wrote a beautiful script and a wonderful story that resonated with me. That’s the only reason to do it. To work with her again is just amazing. It’s been really special, and the story has, I think, some meaningful things to say, and that we can take some nourishment from.
Matrix 4 is directed by Lana Wachowski, half of the Wachowski team from the duo who created the original Matrix trilogy. Lana’s sister Lilly has taken a break from the entertainment industry, after closing the book on the last project they worked on together: Sense8. Lana co-wrote the Matrix 4 script with Aleksandar Hemon, David Mitchell, two writers she worked with on Sense8.
Reeves isn’t alone in cast members returning to the blockbuster. We’ve got Carrie-Ann Moss, who will return to play Trinity. “I never thought that it would happen. It was never on my radar at all,” Moss shared. “When it was brought to me in the way that it was brought to me, with incredible depth, and all of the integrity and artistry that you could imagine, I was like, ‘This is a gift.’ It was just very exciting.”
Moss and Reeves will be joined by original cast member Jada Pinkett Smith, with new cast including Jonathan Groff, Priyanka Chopra, Jessica Henwick, Neil Patrick Harris, Toby Onwumere, Brian J. Smith, Eréndira Ibarra, Andrew Caldwell, and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II.
The Matrix 4 is set for a May 21, 2021 release date.
What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
This is a great app. I wish more people would support it
This app provides info about movies, reviews, ratings from people who have seen it before and after viewing. It has links to info about the movies. It let’s you know when there will be a lull in the action and how long it will last. If you want to know what happens during that time, you can check the brief synopsis (you have to click a link, so no accidental spoilers). It has a timer you can set (silent) to alert you to a break. It also tells you whether there is anything extra during or after the credits. It’s really a wonderful app. I’ve subscribed for a couple of years to support the developers, but I noticed some of the links to provide feedback didn’t seem to work today. They also made it free, with voluntary donations to see the pee-times. If you haven’t tried it, I encourage you to do so, and subscribe if you like it. I really hope the app is supported so it can continue to be maintained!
Developers note: RunPee doesn’t make much money but it supports itself nicely. Donations are appreciated, but not required. We’ll add as many movies to the database as we can until there are no more movie theaters.
