Following the release of "The Matrix Revolutions", the Wachowskis voiced their disinterest in making another "Matrix" film. However, in March 2017, "The Hollywood Reporter" released information stating a fourth installment was in development with director Zak Penn writing the screenplay. The sequel film was officially confirmed in August 2019, with the announcement that Lana Wachowski was returning to "co-write, direct, and produce "The Matrix 4"" as a co-production between Warner Bros. and Village Roadshow Pictures. Additionally, both Reeves and Moss confirmed that they would reprise their roles as Neo and Trinity, respectively.
