  • - This episode of nerdist news is brought to you

  • by Tor Books,

  • proud publisher of "Warrior of the Altaii".

  • How "The Matrix 4" casting news reveals

  • more than you think!

  • Heads up Coppertops!

  • We're plugging back into "The Matrix".

  • Back in August it was announced that Warner Brothers

  • would be producing a fourth Matrix film

  • with Keanu Reeves,

  • reprising his role of Neo along with Carrie Ann Moss

  • returning as Trinity; and with the films set

  • to be directed by franchise co-creator,

  • Lana Wachowski,

  • all we have to say to that perfect storm of talent is

  • Wachwowski!

  • (crickets chirping)

  • Okay, how about just whoa!

  • - Whoa!

  • - This week we have yet another piece of the puzzle

  • with Variety reporting that "Aquaman's"

  • Yahya Abdul-Mateen II having been cast as

  • one of the new leads of this next installment

  • in the franchise.

  • Rumors have long been swirling that the powers that be

  • have wanted to bring "The Matrix" back in some way.

  • Whether as another story within the world's

  • created by "The Matrix" or a prequel of some sort.

  • But, with the announcement of the film being titled,

  • "Matrix 4"

  • along with some of the fan favorites returning.

  • This definitely implies that this is a continuation

  • of the story that was finished in "The Matrix Revolutions".

  • But, what did these announcements of new leads

  • and returning stars mean for "The Matrix 4"?

  • Where the franchise can go from the divisive ending

  • of "The Matrix Revolutions".

  • Well let's break it down right now.

  • If it's been awhile since you've logged into "The Matrix",

  • the third film, "The Matrix Revolutions", ends with both

  • Trinity and Neo sacrificing themselves to protect

  • the last human city of Zion from getting wiped out

  • by the machines by rebooting The Matrix,

  • to purge it of the Smith infection.

  • Neo managed to break the wheel in a way that

  • Daenerys Targaryen couldn't.

  • He stopped the cycle of the human resistance

  • being completed wiped out and left to rebuild.

  • Neo's sacrifice was the only way to prevent the deaths

  • of almost everyone in Zion and this Neo was

  • the first version

  • of The One

  • who was able to achieve that.

  • The trilogy ends with an uneasy peace

  • after centuries of war between man and machine.

  • But, with Trinity dying and Neo seemingly,

  • i.e. almost definitely,

  • dying in the third Matrix film.

  • How could they possibly return for a fourth Matrix film?

  • Well, there are a couple of ways this could work.

  • Trinity did appear in "The Matrix" online massive

  • multiplayer online game that took place

  • after the trilogy's end,

  • implying that she some how lived.

  • Whether this is canon or not remains to be seen.

  • But, this definitely leaves the door open

  • for the onscreen death of Trinity

  • and the near certain death of Neo to retconned in some way.

  • Even if it means that their digital essences

  • remain in The Matrix,

  • even though their physical bodies have died.

  • Also, when the architect shows Neo his past iterations

  • in "The Matrix Reloaded",

  • we see that they all look like Keanu Reeves.

  • This basically confirms that The Matrix created

  • the human resistance in the first place

  • as a further means of control.

  • But it also indicates that there is some

  • genetic manipulation or cloning going on down on the farms

  • where humanity is grown if The One always looks

  • like Keanu Reeves Neo.

  • Maybe The Matrix's creators created a new batch

  • of Neos and Trinities and we will see new versions

  • of the characters in "The Matrix 4",

  • while still being a continuation

  • of the same timeline of events from

  • "The Matrix Revolutions".

  • Plus casting Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as a new lead,

  • implies the franchise is looking to branch out

  • and we could see new stories set in new parts

  • of the universe,

  • a la "The Animatrix".

  • Perhaps a new type of hero could emerge

  • to fight new threats,

  • kind of like the "Star Wars" sequel trilogy,

  • but with how hot Keanu Reeves is right now

  • we're not expecting to see him sidelined

  • at all in "The Matrix 4".

  • Another option for how this all could work

  • is this could still somehow be a prequel

  • or a sidequel spinoff to "The Matrix",

  • with this story taking place

  • in one of the past or future iterations of "The Matrix".

  • If there's one thing we know for certain

  • it's that the peace between humanity and the machines

  • will be broken in some way,

  • because come on,

  • there wouldn't be a movie otherwise.

  • We'll just have to see how this all shakes out

  • when we learn more as it goes into production next year.

  • But, what do you folks think?

  • Are you excited for "The Matrix 4"?

  • - Yes!

  • - [Amy] How will Neo and Trinity return?

  • Are you glad that this gives them an excuse

  • to make another "Animatrix"?

  • Let's discuss.

  • Thanks again to Tor Books for sponsoring today's episode.

  • "Warrior of the Altaii",

  • the never-before published novel from the epic

  • fantasy author of "The Wheel of Time" series,

  • Robert Jordan

  • has arrived.

  • Bad omens are abound and Wulfgar,

  • a leader of the Altaii people,

  • must contend with twin queens, warlords,

  • prophets, and magic in hopes of protecting

  • his people and securing their future.
