Get ready: The Matrix is going to have you all over again. For a while now, we’ve known that Lana Wachowski was returning to the sci-fi saga she helped bring to the big screen, with the likes of Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss returning too. We recently learned that it’ll officially be calledThe Matrix Resurrections. And now, we have our very first glimpses at this mysterious, mythical, all-new Matrix movie courtesy of some interactive teasers, which can be found on the revamped website: whatisthematrix.com. Head to the site, and you’ll be confronted with a red pill and a blue pill. Select either one of them, and you’ll get some brief flashes of the new film, along with some important info: the full trailer is dropping this Thursday.
So, what do we see in those teasers? The footage changes with each viewing, so be sure to check them several times – but from multiple watches, here are some things that Empire snapped, and some thoughts on what we’re seeing.
The Matrix Resurrections – Teaser Images

The Matrix Resurrections
Neo and Trinity reunited in a sun-dappled room.

Neo walking down a neon-lit street in the Matrix, coat blowing in the breeze. (Note the coffee shop name gag – 'Simulatte')

The Matrix Resurrections
The classic red pill or blue pill choice.

The Matrix Resurrections
Rage against the machines. Or, machines raging against the people.

The Matrix Resurrections
Jonathan Groff looking sinister, but finding himself on the receiving end of that awful mouth-flesh treatment. Maybe he's not as evil as he looks?

Neo using The Matrix equivalent of The Force while riding a motorbike.

Trinity returning with her signature wall-run move.

Yahya Abdul-Mateen II's character poking a liquid mirror.

Slow-mo gun shots!

The Matrix Resurrections
Yahya Abdul-Mateen II's character taking a good look at himself. That condensation neatly echoes the look of the green Matrix code.

The Matrix Resurrections
Something strange happening with Yahya Abdul-Mateen II's character – is he a machine? Could he be Morpheus reborn?

Jessica Yu Li Henwick's character taking aim.
There are plenty of familiar echoes there, then – shots recreated particularly from the first film, shiny pills, gooey mirrors, and gravity-defying stunts. And, depending on which version you see, there are some returning shots of Neo and Trinity too – sure to get fans of the original trilogy very excited. Plus we have some glimpses of our new cast members, including Jessica Yu Li Henwick, Jonathan Groff, and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II – whose character (could he, as rumoured, be connected to Morpheus in some way?) has some very interesting stuff going on, by the looks of things.
Either way, expect more answers – or, at least, plenty more questions – when the full trailer for The Matrix Resurrections arrives later this week. For now, we can’t wait to jack into the Matrix once more.
