It’s 25 years since The Matrix had an explosive impact on cinema, and while it’s fair to say that the sequels – the two originally planned sequels and the unexpectedMatrix Resurrectionsfrom 2021 – didn’t have quite the same effect, the world of The Matrix remains one of cinema’s biggest hits. So it’s not entirely surprising to see that there will now be a fifth Matrix movie, albeit this time without the direct involvement of either Wachowski sister.
But will a Matrix movie without the Wachowskis be the real thing, or just a simulation?
Will a fifth Matrix movie know the path, or walk the path?
There’s no doubt that Drew Goddard has sci-fi chops: in addition to The Martian his CV includes Cloverfield and World War Z. But some fans of the franchise worry that without either Wachowski, a new Matrix movie may look like the real thing but lack its heart. The sisters had previously ruled out making any more Matrix movies, and it was only after the death of their parents that Lana Wachowski had a change of heart and wrote Resurrections.
