Variety confirmed the news with an additional surprise for the fans, telling them that it will be Lana Wachowski who’ll be wearing the director’s hat once again.
Warner Bros. officially announced the return of Matrix with chapter 4 and this news is what fans had been waiting for a couple of years now.
Not just that, Keanu Reeves will return and so will Carrie-Ann Moss.

This was not just news but a leaf straight out of the book of nostalgia for many. Twitter users were loving the idea of seeing Neo and Trinity together once again.

So if Trinity lives in Matrix 4 maybe Neo hops on Rufus’ time machine, goes back, orders a double-double animal style, smashes skynet before it becomes self aware & passes his history test but struggles w/ his English accent trying to stop the mob from killing his dog. Excellent!

Ooh, man…. This is playing with fire, folks. The trilogy was brilliant. The bar is set VERY high for this. It better be damn good.

We've gained Matrix 4 but have lost MCU Spider-Man. pic.twitter.com/UlOYkdqvpL

I’m super excited that WB is interested in the Matrix again because that expands possibilities outside of film as well. This makes a new Matrix game even more likely which has me excited. Could even be what @RocksteadyGames is working on if we disregard the Suicide Squad rumours.
