The Matrix 4, directed by Lana Wachowski, has been given a release date from Warner Bros., and it's the same date as John Wick 4, also with Keanu Reeves, currently scheduled: May 21, 2021. Though it looks like viewers will have to make a tough decision about how they'd like to appreciate Keanu Reeves' work that day, chances are some of them will shift the date by a few weeks when we'll be so far from Liberation. Otherwise, May 21, 2021 will be known as Keanu Day... which is a good thing, too. We don't know much about The Matrix 4 other than the director and cast, because fans of the franchise (okay, the first movie) are asking for information on how this new chapter will fit into the saga. . Watchmen's Yahya Abdul Mateen II, Mindhunter's Jonathan Groff, Iron Fist's Neil Patrick Harris and Jessica Henwick will join Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss in their original roles as Neo and Trinity. Wachowski co-wrote the script with Cloud Atlas author David Mitchell and Aleksandar Hemon. While the last two movies, Reloaded and Revolutions, were propelled by an overloaded plot and boring sequences set in the human colony of Zion, The Matrix is still a fictional universe with a lot of potential. (If you've never seen the beautiful and varied animated shorts that make up The Animatrix, this might just convince you that there are more stories to tell in this world.)
