In 1999, a daringly original sci-fi film became the must-see hit of the year and launched

one of the most successful trilogies of all time.

Now, two decades later, another sequel is on the way.

So grab a spoon, pick a pill, and find out everything there is to know about The Matrix

Though no release date has yet been revealed, we have some pretty good guesses.

Variety reported that the new Matrix film is scheduled to begin filming in early 2020.

Considering how long it takes to film, edit, and create digital effects for a movie like

The Matrix, the release date likely won't be until the summer or fall of 2021.

The Matrix and The Matrix Reloaded hit theaters in late March 1999 and mid-May 2003, respectively,

while The Matrix Revolutions, shot immediately after Reloaded, made its way to theaters just

six months later in November 2003 so as to not keep fans waiting for the trilogy's conclusion.

Keanu Reeves, actor, officially became Keanu Reeves, legend, thanks to his turn as Neo

For most fans, if there's no Neo, there's no point to a new Matrix film.

Well, don't worry, because Reeves is reportedly signed on for The Matrix 4.

And he'll also be joined by co-star Carrie Anne-Moss, who became a Hollywood sensation

So far, though, there's no word regarding the return of other Matrix stars like Hugo

Weaving, Laurence Fishburne, or Jada-Pinkett-Smith.

For now, we'll just have to wait and see.

It wouldn't be a Matrix movie if the Wachowskis weren't involved.

After turning heads with the stylish 1996 crime drama Bound, Lana and Lily Wachowski

made themselves legends with The Matrix in 1999, and went on to co-write and co-direct

So will they be involved with the new Matrix?

While Lily Wachowski apparently won't be involved, Lana Wachowski is set to direct, and co-write

the script with author Aleksander Hemon and Cloud Atlas screenwriter David Mitchell.

"We could not be more excited to be re-entering The Matrix with Lana.

Lana is a true visionary - a singular and original creative filmmaker - and we are thrilled

that she is writing, directing, and producing this new chapter in The Matrix universe."

One thing conspicuously absent from Variety's August 2019 report announcing the launch of

The Matrix 4 was any mention of Laurence Fishburne's character Morpheus.

Variety reporter Justin Kroll later tweeted that this may actually be a hint as to the

"If you've asked yourself, 'Where's [Morpheus],' sources have told me this may point to where

and when the film is set as I've heard execs are looking at a variety of actors to possibly

The fact that Morpheus might be played by an actor younger than Fishburne suggests The

Matrix 4 takes place in a different time - or in a different timeline - than the original

And it also suggests they've decided to scrap the previously rumored Matrix reboot as well.

Yes it's true: back in March, 2017, The Hollywood Reporter broke the news that Warner Bros.

had started preliminary development of a reboot/relaunch of The Matrix.

After original Matrix producer Joel Silver approached Warner Bros. with the idea of a

revival, the studio reportedly began discussions with X-Men: The Last Stand and Incredible

Hulk screenwriter Zak Penn to write a detailed narrative plot outline.

The Wachowskis were not involved with that project, and no actors were ever signed, but

initial reports hinted that Warner Bros. would've liked to cast Creed star Michael B. Jordan.

Now, though, with director Lana Wachowski and stars Keanu Reeves and Carrie Anne-Moss

all set to return to the world of The Matrix, it seems as though that reboot project is

"Ironically, this is not far from the truth.
