The Matrix saga continues. Warner Bros Pictures and Village Roadshow Pictures will be back with the long-awaited fourth instalment in the famous sci-fi series, The Matrix.

According to Variety, Lana Wachowski, one half of the Wachowskis who directed all the three films in the franchise with sister Lilly, will write and helm the new project.

“Many of the ideas Lilly and I explored 20 years ago about our reality are even more relevant now. I’m very happy to have these characters back in my life and grateful for another chance to work with my brilliant friends,” Lana Wachowski said.

There’s no word on the plot and timeline of The Matrix 4 apart from the cast. Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss will return to reprise their respective roles of Neo and Trinity. The production is expected to begin early next year.

The trilogy — The Matrix, The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions–collectively earned over USD 1.6 billion worldwide.
