A new Matrix Resurrections photo arrives finding Keanu Reeves' Neo and Carrie-Anne Moss' Trinity reunited in the sci-fi action sequel. Franchise co-creator Lana Wachowski returns as director for The Matrix Resurrections with a script she co-wrote with Cloud Atlas author David Mitchell and Sense8 alum Aleksander Hemon. The cast for the film is once again led by Reeves and Moss alongside the returns of Jada Pinkett Smith and Lambert Wilson and series newcomers Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Morpheus, Jessica Henwick, Jonathan Groff, Neil Patrick Harris, Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Christina Ricci.
The Matrix Resurrections picks up 20 years after the events of The Matrix Revolutions and finds Neo living a normal life in San Francisco once again under the name of Thomas A. Anderson, who regularly sees a therapist prescribing blue pills. One day, Anderson runs into Trinity, though neither recognize one another, and shortly thereafter is reunited with Morpheus, offering him a red pill and a chance to open his eyes to the truth about The Matrix. After two years of production and COVID-19-related delays, The Matrix Resurrections is gearing up for its long-awaited release.
A new Matrix Resurrections photo has been unveiled with just over a month to go until the film's premiere. The image sees Trinity and Neo reunited in what looks to be a coffee shop, though the reunion does't appear overly happy as the two look on in suspicion to an off-camera presence. Check out the image below:
The new Matrix Resurrections photo doesn't offer much in the way of clarification for the film's still-mysterious plot, but it does feature a nice hint for the development of Trinity and Neo's relationship. The first trailer for the film saw the two re-introduced at a coffee shop in San Francisco, which appears to be the setting of the image with the large neon "Simmulatte" sign situated behind the two. The first footage for the film also pointed to the coffee shop being the setting of an action sequence for the two in which Trinity seemingly displays some form of mind-bending powers.
With Trinity and Neo's relationship in The Matrix Resurrections being one of the key points of inspiration and focus for Wachowski, it will certainly be interesting to see how the two are reunited, namely as the former seemingly died in The Matrix Revolutions. The internet has been ablaze with theories of how she returns and what it means for the story and potential sequels, with everything from Trinity simply being a program created by The Matrix to actually being the One instead of Neo. Only time will tell when The Matrix Resurrections hits HBO Max and theaters on December 22.
