'The Matrix Resurrections': Neo and Trinity Are Back (With Amnesia)

The trailer, set to Jefferson Airplane’s “White Rabbit,” sees Neo (Keanu Reeves) in therapy — his therapist is played by Neil Patrick Harris, by the way — discussing strange memories he’s been having in dreams. Those memories, of course, are of his past as The One, the savior of Zion who liberated humans from The Matrix at the cost of his own life. How he has returned to life without memories of the one he lived before is not yet clear.

On top of that, he reunites with the love of his life, Trinity (Carrie Anne Moss). But while their first meeting was in an undergroud club blaring Rob Zombie over the speakers, this reunion is in a brightly lit cafe during the day. But Trinity also notices something strange, asking, “Have we met before?”

And soon, history repeats itself, as a mysterious man in black offers Neo the choice between a red and a blue pill and the chance to discover the truth. But this man is not Morpheus, and it’s unclear whether humans have truly been liberated from the machines or if the world has returned to the chaos that The One and the people of Zion hoped to be free from.

‘Matrix 4’ Trailer & Title Unveiled During Warner Bros CinemaCon Reel – Deadline

It begins with Neil Patrick Harris talking to Keanu Reeves’ Neo. A near future San Francisco. It appears that Neo is trapped in a humdrum world, much like his first self in the 1999 movie. He’s just not getting his surroundings.

“Am I crazy,” asks Reeves’ “We don’t use that word in hear says Harris’ therapist.

Reeves comes in contact with Carrie Anne Moss’ Trinity in a cafe: “Have we met?” she asks Neo.

A shot of blue pills spilling into a sink, as Jefferson Airplane’s “White Rabbit” song plays.

Then a shot of Neo distorting into an old man in the mirror. A younger Morpheus tells Neo “time to fly” handing him a red pill.

Then a lot of jumping, a lot twists in mid-air, karate and all the acrobats we expect from a Matrix movie.

The Matrix 4 Has Its Official Title And First Footage

It begins with a very glossy looking city. A psychiatrist (Neil Patrick Harris) is sitting with a patient named Thomas. Thomas is Reeves and he’s having problems. He says he’s having dreams that aren’t quite dreams. We see him walking down the street with the green Matrix code. “Am I crazy?” he asks. “We don’t say that,” the doctor replies. Thomas is then sitting in a bathtub with a rubber duck on his head. He walks into a coffee shop and greets Trinity. “Have we met?” she asks as they shake hands.

We see that Thomas is taking blue pills at home. He looks into the sky and watches a bunch of birds flying. He’s trying to analyze it. Next he’s in an elevator with a bunch of people on their phones and he looks up at the reflection of everyone looking at screens. About here is where the song “White Rabbit” begins playing.

Yahya Abdul-Mateen II shows up as a character who looks just like Morpheus and offers Thomas a red pill. He meets a person with blue hair who has a tattoo of a rabbit. This all feel very familiar to us, the audience, because this is kind of just... The Matrix again?

Neo and the person with blue hair walk through a mirror. He’s in a café. Then he’s in a very serene dojo, which is on a lake, with Abdul-Mateen’s character. “The only thing that matters to you is still here,” he says. “You’ll never give up.” They begin to perform martial arts, and when Thomas hits Abdul-Mateen’s character hard in the chest and he flies out of the room.

Thomas and the blue-haired person are on a train. A bullet from a sniper is shot from far away and it flies through the train toward them. Tons of action scenes now cut very quickly. We see the fields of people plugged into the matrix. Trinity being unplugged in the matrix. The blue haired person jumping over a car in slow motion. Thomas holds bullets in the air. A helicopter fires a missile at Thomas and Trinity, and Thomas changes its direction mid-air and shoots it into another helicopter. Then, Thomas is in an office with a man in a business suit played by Jonathan Groff. “You’re going back to where it all started,” he says. “Back to the Matrix.” Then the title: The Matrix, which fades away, and then Resurrections.

 

[Pennywise]

I need a trailer for this NOW!!!!

 

[Iceman]

I haven’t been keeping track of all this but it sounds very interesting.

Another description of the footage shown with a few other bits not mentioned in the previous article I posted.

Matrix 4 CinemaCon Trailer Description: Neo & Trinity Reunite

Update: Warner Bros. also debuted the first full trailer for the sequel, officially titled The Matrix Resurrections. The new trailer opens in San Francisco, with Neo now going by the name of Thomas and seemingly unaware of who he is. Neil Patrick Harris plays his therapist and a brief scene of Neo as Thomas is shown in a therapy session. Neo says, "I've had dreams that don't seem like dreams. Am I crazy?" before he has flashbacks to events of the original trilogy.

The trailer also expands on the initial footage of Trinity and Neo meeting, but this time, they don't seem to know each other even though they think they do. Trinity asks Neo as Thomas, "Have we met?" The trailer then shifts into montage mode, with Neo observing day-to-day life in the Matrix's version of San Francisco. Finally, Mateen shows up and he looks like a young Morpheus, saying, "Time to fly," before offering Neo a red pill and a blue pill. Then, another young woman with blue hair takes Neo through a mirror, showing him the Matrix.

Another scene sees young Morpheus and Neo fighting before Neo breaks the dojo room with his powers. The trailer also shows that the machine pods are back, as are the Agents, and the franchise's signature action. Trinity can be seen fighting police officers and Agents at one point before the clip ends with Neo pulling his signature move, stopping bullets with his mind, before he redirects an entire missile at a helicopter.

Its not their fault, but I do wish that with how the red/blue pill imagery has been co-opted, they would picked something else to convey this...

 

[Shinobi Shaw]

So in the OG trilogy Neo and Trinity met during nighttime at that club, this go round it's a sunny cafe. Maybe that means their romance won't end in death and bullets this time.

Sorry I'm searching for all the symbolism I can LOL.

 

[Pennywise]

Seems like Jessica Henwick is playing the blue haired woman, and it sounds like she’ll have a big role, which is awesome!

FFS. Drop the trailer WB!!!

[Doctor Jones]

Perhaps I'm seeing what I want to see, but this does oddly sounds like it could be playing into those rumors of the test screening with

Spoiler

the meta nature of it where the studio wants to do a sequel to The Matrix. This whole thing of familiarity could be part of that meta aspect. Mateen being a Morpheus looking guy is just very suspicious. Lana Wachowski wouldn't just do the same thing again and playing up the familiarity aspect is something I could see Lana making a point of with the first trailer. And if that's true, that's brilliant.

 

[Loden Greatstorm]

Feel free to ask anything

Does Neo have a new look?

 

[SuperBatman]

I fear we won't get the Matrix Trailer until Dune comes out I might be wrong but besides NWH Trailer hardly anything comes out of Cinemacon

 

[JohnUnknownDoe]

So this is a meta movie within the movie ? Or does it turn out that the machines break the truce ?

 

[Still Wynning]

I already want the trailer for this. I can already sort of picture it in my head, but I need to actually see footage to get a better idea of what this film will look like. It sounds so fascinating.

Its not their fault, but I do wish that with how the red/blue pill imagery has been co-opted, they would picked something else to convey this...

Maybe they’ll address it in the film and how their meaning and purpose has been corrupted and misconstrued in the “real world” by people who misinterpreted their symbolism over the years, and take back the symbol from the people who have misused it.

From some of the stuff I’ve read, that would very much fit in line with what this film is trying to do.
