Warner Bros. has officially announced the release of the fifth Matrix film, written and directed by Drew Goddard. As noted by the president of production at Warner Bros. Motion Pictures Jesse Ehrman, the entire team is thrilled that Drew will direct this new film, adding his vision to the Wachowskis' cinematic canon.
Drew came to Warner Bros. with a new idea that we all believe will be an incredible way to extend the world of The Matrix, honoring what Lana and Lilly started over 25 years ago and offering a unique perspective based on his own love of the franchises and characters,
