Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss reprise their roles as Neo and Trinity, humans who rebel against the computer program running the "world" of The Matrix
The world is currently experiencing a sense of 1999 deja vu, no it's not a glitch in the Matrix - Neo and Trinity have returned to the big screen in The Matrix Resurrections, directed by Lana Wachowski, on-half of the original sibling pair who made The Matrix and its sequels, Reloaded and Revolutions. There are some notable absentees in the cast of the fourth film - Morpheus and Agent Smith are played by Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and Jonathan Groff instead of Laurence Fishburne and Hugo Weaving - but the two lead characters remain reassuringly familiar. Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss reprise their roles as Neo and Trinity, humans who rebel against the computer program running the "world" of The Matrix.
Indeed, there could be no fourth Matrix film without Keanu Reeves or Carrie-Anne Moss but the actors themselves never imagined they would be breaking out the black leather and martial arts moves again, 18 years after the final film in the original trilogy, The Matrix Revolutions, released in 2003. "I never thought I would be in another Matrix film, I was 100% sure that this will never happen again. It was a complete shock for me when I got the call to play the part," Carrie-Anne Moss, whose badass fight sequences as Trinity became iconic, told NDTV.
Keanu Reeves too never expected to be back playing Neo. "I never thought we would be sharing another Matrix story. I am glad that we have and I hope the audiences like it," he said.
The Matrix changed cinema at several levels when it released in 1999, including a romantic partnership like no other in Neo and Trinity. "Neo and Trinity love each other. There is purity, there is strength, there is partnership and respect between them," Keanu said.
