Warner Bros. Discovery has started the first preparations for Matrix 5. As you know, Matrix 4 Resurrections did not achieve the success it wanted at the box office. The last movie of the series was a big disappointment, especially for Matrix fans. Despite this, Warner Bros. still continues to trust the series.
Matrix 5 sequel plot and director
The studio has currently agreed with Drew Goddard for the Matrix 5 sequel. However, Lana Wachowski will also produce the new film. We remember Drew Goddard especially with his success in the movie The Martian. The successful director was also a part of the script team in the TV series Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Alias and Lost.
According to the statement from Warner Bros. Discovery, Drew Goddard knocked on the studio’s door with a new story for the Matrix sequel. As you know, Warner Bros. did not want to continue the series after the fourth movie fiasco.

However, although details are not disclosed, Matrix 5 will appear with a new plot and new characters. However, it is not clear whether there will be core roles such as Keanu Reeves, Carrie Anne-Moss, Laurence Fishburne, Hugo Weaving and Jada Pinkett Smith in the new movie.
Statement that lowers expectations for Spider-Man 4!
Sam Raimi, the legendary director of the Spider-Man trilogy, talked about Spider-Man 4. So will he appear in the new movie?
Drew Goddard has important skills such as being a director, creative producer and screenwriter. The director, known for focusing on the story in the films he directed, especially attracted attention with The Martian.
It is not known whether the director will make a movie based on the main story with the Matrix sequel. Especially with Matrix 4, fans did not like the course of the story very much. At this point, both the characters and the story may change with Matrix 5. However, here Lana Wachowski seems to be the main guide in the course of the story. In its statement, Warner Bross also emphasized that the team is excited, especially for Lana Wachowski’s contribution to the project.
This shows that Goddard is not that comfortable with the Matrix sequel. One of the most requested stories for the Matrix movie is the first battle between robots and humans. This subject, briefly covered in Animatrix, is one of the most popular stories among Matrix fans.
What do you think Matrix 5 should be like? Would you like the new movie to focus specifically on one of the stories told with the Animatrix? We are waiting your comments.
