The Matrix Resurrections trailer has finally arrived, and is sparking a lot of questions about how this (sequel? Reboot?) of The Matrix franchises exists. As movie fans both new and old get reacquainted with The Matrix Universe, there are some interesting insights about the series’ carefully-guarded continuity and where it stands. For those who don’t remember, after making the original Matrix movie a worldwide hit in 1999, the Wachowskis and Warner Bros. embarked on making a multi-platform expanded franchises universe that was almost a decade ahead of what Marvel Studios and DC Films would later build.
I wonder if the new Matrix movie will address the supposedly-canon The Matrix Online game from 2005, where Morpheus is shot dead in an alley by a creepy assassin pic.twitter.com/wQxf48nv8H
“hey why isn’t basically the main guy in the new movie”“well he got shot in an alleyway in a video game you can’t legally play anymore. sorry boss there’s nothing we can do”
