THE MATRIX: RESURRECTIONS Co-Writer Explains The Film is a "Beautiful and Weird Creation"
The Matrix: Resurrections will hit theaters and HBO Max next month, but while we wait, the co-writer of the film, David Mitchell, is opening up about the film and sharing what we can expect from it explaining that the movie is a "beautiful and weird creation."
During a recent interview with To Vima (Via Screen Rant), Mitchell said, "I saw the film in Berlin in September. It's really good. I cannot tell you what this film is about, but I could explain what it is not. It's certainly not yet one more sequel, but something autonomous that contains the three Matrix that preceded in a really ingenious way. It's a very beautiful and weird creation. It also achieved a couple of things that we do not see in action films, meaning it subverts the rules of blockbusters."
One of the things that made The Matrix franchise so great is that it always tries to do different and unique things with the action and story and subverts the rules of blockbuster action films. I was hoping that would be the case for this next film, so this comment makes me happy and gets me excited about what exactly this movie is going to deliver.
The Matrix Resurrections is “a continuation of the story established in the first MATRIX film. It reunites Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss as cinematic icons Neo and Trinity in an expansion of their story that ventures back into the Matrix and even deeper down the rabbit hole. A mind-bending new adventure with action and epic scale, it’s set in a familiar yet even more provocative world where reality is more subjective than ever and all that’s required to see the truth is to free your mind.”
The film stars Keanu Reeves, Carrie-Anne Moss, Jessica Henwick, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Neil Patrick Harris, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Jonathan Groff, Christina Ricci, Telma Hopkins, Eréndira Ibarra, Toby Onwumere, Max Riemelt, Brian J. Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith.
The Matrix: Resurrections opens in theaters and on HBO Max on December 22nd.
