Audiences are getting ready to dive back into the Matrix universe. Warner Brothers recently announced that Drew Goddard, known for his work on The Martian, will be writing and directing a new movie in the sci-fi franchise. This upcoming film will mark the first in the cyberpunk series not directly involving its original creators Lana or Lilly Wachowski, although Lana will serve as an executive producer. As for the returning stars like Keanu Reeves and Laurence Fishburne, it’s still uncertain if they’ll be back. Amidst this, ets delve into the exciting developments surrounding the upcoming Matrix film and explores the journey of the franchise thus far.

Goddard’s Sci-Fi Legacy and Matrix Pitch

Goddard, who earned an Oscar nomination for his work on The Martian, has an impressive background in sci-fi. He started his career writing for TV shows like Buffy the Vampire Slayer before moving on to shows like Angel, Alias, and Lost. He’s also known for creating Marvel’s Daredevil and for his involvement in NBC’s The Good Place. With additional screenwriting credits including Cloverfield, The Cabin in the Woods, and World War Z, Goddard is no stranger to the genre.

It was Goddard who pitched the idea for another Matrix film to Warner Bros. This comes after the release of The Matrix Resurrections in 2021, which didn’t perform as well as expected, partly due to its same-day streaming release during the pandemic.

Goddard has been a key figure in various projects, including Marvel TV series and Netflix’s Daredevil. He’s also known for his work as a writer and director on films like Bad Times at El Royale. Meanwhile, the fifth Matrix movie will pick up where The Matrix Resurrections left off, exploring Neo’s realization that he’s trapped in an alternate reality.

Following the lukewarm reception of “The Matrix Resurrections” in 2021, which grossed $159 million worldwide, Drew Goddard pitched a fresh concept to Warner Bros. This revitalization of the franchise marks a departure from the involvement of Lana and Lilly Wachowski, the original creators, although Lana will serve as an executive producer. Notably, the return of franchise stars like Keanu Reeves remains uncertain.
