DylanC Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 (edited) If handled correctly, I could see this being a hit. I’m hoping for Keanu to star in it in some kind of role, though. Would you be down for this? http://thedeadbeatcritics.com/2019/06/24/warner-bros-is-reportedly-developing-a-matrix-prequel/ Edited June 25, 2019 by DylanC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killamch89 Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 It is about time because I always wondered how the world of the Matrix even came about and what was the origin of agent smith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Yep, I'm like you. I think that there could be some really interesting stories to be told about the origins of The Matrix. As long as it's handled correctly, a prequel movie to The Matrix could be a really great idea. But like I said above, having Keanu back would be key to making it authentically feel like a true The Matrix movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I feel like Keanu should appear somewhere towards the latter part of the movie because it was stated in one of the movies that the matrix existed before he did.

Expand That sounds like a really cool idea! I'd be fine with Keanu being more of a cameo, if they got the right actors and had the right script. As long as he's in it somewhere (and kicks someone's ass) then I'd be happy with that. I also like your idea of an origin story about Agent Smith. He's definitely one of the most interesting characters in the films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I guess it may have something to do with his "viral" nature, if that makes sense. I think that a new prequel could definitely explore one of the old matrixes (as referenced in the movies). I think making it resonate with modern audiences in a new way would be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I understand what you mean and I wouldn't mind if it showed how those robot things came to be as well because they don't look like they were created by humans at all.
