The Matrix 5 in 2026!? Everything You Need to Know! | MATRIX EXPLAINED 

Bring back Lawrence fishburne

I don't trust Hollywood anymore. That last movie was one of the worst movies i've ever seen. The borg have assimilated this franchise.

there is so much lore and stories to tell in the matrix universe. the only thing that matters is quality writing and story.

Bring back old Bullet Time, Agent transformation, Martial arts, Rage Against The Machines.

"I have imagined this moment for a long time. Is it real?" (Morpheus)

You have expanded the Matrix Universe so much here on your channel, they should come to you for some Fresh New Ideas!!!

They should make a prequel about the first 2 matrix, the heavenly and the hellish ones

Bring back Hugo Weaving, the real agent Smith

Lets make it mind blowing like the first one!

I wish the new director would describe the whole Matrix Resurrection movie as a modal simulation glitch within the Matrix.

And THIS is why I never gave up on Matrix Explained. For the past few days I was thinking about how sad it was that Resurrections would be the final farewell. So this is amazing news; almost unbelievable. Hats of to Matrix Explained for continuing after the Resurrections flop. I actually still watch Resurrections; starving for anything Matrix oriented. This video just made my day/week/year. Matrix Explained has a bright future! I'm so excited!

This is the best Matrix channel ever! Great job man. Loved your take on the news. Matrix 5 here we come!! 👊

The best part of this news is all the speculation and theorizing videos we will be getting on this channel. I will never forget the lead up to Matrix 4 on this channel, always excited for new videos

Agent Scully and Mulder as the next Agents!!

The reason why this franchise had such an impact… was because there was so much truth…. As long as that truth is expanded… I think it will be profound.

My hopes for this one: 1. Neo with short hair and shaved face 2. Hugo Weaving's Smith vs. Jonathan Groff's Smith 3. Trinity flying 4. Faster reflexes for fight scenes 5. Exploring the city of IO 6. Kid's return as an old man 7. Visiting the graves of people who died including the Battle of Zion, including Mifune 8. Flashbacks during the time gap in between Revolutions and Resurrections, with Laurence Fishburne's return as Morpheus 9. Maybe a scene where someone in IO, raising a good Sentinel like a pet. 10. Payoffs to ceratin lines the characters have said. 11. "As long as the Matrix exists, the human race will never be free." Will the Matrix be destroyed at last?

We were all waiting patiently

I'm super excited the wachowski's aren't running the show makes me feel like it will be a good movie hopefully

Was not expecting that, amazing news anyways 👏👏👏

I have so much respect for this channel, you guys are amazing!

I can’t wait !!!!

I’m just happy this channel got some new content to work with! Must be exciting, hehe.

I'm crying right now! What a news!!

Creative editing.... as usual.

thats amazing:P

Yes!!!! Amazing news for the 25th anniversary! My all time favorite film! So happy about this. Goddard does some high quality work. I believe he'll do for The Matrix what Villeneuve is doing for Dune. Cannot wait! Thank you to this channel for the best Matrix content!

Love it❤

yes! we want more of the matrix universe!

It's going to suck if it was anything like the last one

lets goooooooooo keep making these until i wake up

so happy!!

In video games, a quick time event (QTE) is a method of context-sensitive gameplay in which the player performs actions on the control device shortly after the appearance of an on-screen instruction/prompt.

Another video cool

"He's gonna pop." Blaqckaaaaaah!

LETS GO!!!

Well Warner bros did say even if Matrix 4 doesn't do good in theaters, she can make as many Matrix movies as she wants! And I really want to see more evidence that the "real world" is another simulation and there was LOADS of clues in Matrix 4

Me: ...Whoa Neo: Whoooaaaa

So excited for this new Matrix movie!

I'm in! Let's do it! 6 and 7 too!

Before I finish watching this video, I saw something about this on facebook within the last couple of days. If this is true, I’m all for it

Congrats, men

Great news 🎉🎉🎉

HYPE

wow cant wait

I'm actually going to watch this one

Yayyyyy!!!🎉🎉🎉

This channel will grow too! Good news.

I'm for it But... Bring back the original Choreographer Bring back the original composers Bring back the same cinematographer Find away for Hugo and Fishbourne to come back. Maybe the code on both AI Morpheus and Re-coded Smith code can update itself? I dunno. But please do it Bring back actual Bullet-time, and not that choppy 20fps bullet-time

okeeeee. Now im hyped! A little sad that Lana is not writing but at least she is still involved with the project. And I gotta say: I love the Cloverfield series! Very unique movies. Sooooo if it got the same creative energy, it actually could turn out good!

I think Matrix 5 should ask the question if living in a virtual reality controlled by both man and machine is better than a life in reality. A movie where the matrix is actually at peace but Neo must decide if humanity is better off in the simulation or without it. The story ends with him ending the matrix for good, or continuing it... Cipher was always my favourite character, I actually understand why he'd choose the fantasy life "I know what you're thinking, why oh why, didn't I take the blue pill!" It could also mock Warner Bros for wanting to continue the franchise, like we saw in Resurrections. I really hope this new video game ties into the actual story somehow and isn't just a "the game of the movie" type of deal

Cool. So far, all of the movies have tried to say something profound about the nature of reality (within the story world and also the real world). I wonder what Drew will try to say with this one that hasn't already been covered.

Love the matrix, all movies. The machine war and the fall of zion, should be about matrix 5. Love the channel and the vids cheers

primero estuvo el "arquitecto", después en Matrix 4, salió el "analista", ahora si el próximo villano es interpretado por kevin spacey, sea cual sea la denominación del villano, si le levantan el castigo de baneo en hollywood, yo creo que eso seria el máximo plus posible! first there was the "architect", then in Matrix 4, the "analyst" came out, now if the next villain is played by Kevin Spacey, whatever the name of the villain, if they lift the punishment of banning him from Hollywood, I think that It would be the biggest plus possible! soy de chile y fanatico matrix!

Wow😱😱😱 I can't believe 💚💚💚

The actual matrix we are in as souls is collapsing into another level, even the simpsons report endtime activites. Spaceverse metaverse etc.. Mind uplaoding from basereality. Exit or get stuck here.

This is very good news. I will be looking forward to the new movie.

They need to just make a prequel. I’m interested in the stories that led to all this.

Well, now it’s time for me to rewatch all four films and the anime

The 25th anniversary was a hint...

I knew my intuition just picked up on something Fantastic

Just please make sure the plot and writing is stellar.

Just want to say congrats for the major content update. The matrix needs more explainin’

Well… I’m glad they’re going with another writer and director. Maybe… just maybe it will be good this time. My thoughts is they don’t have to bring back any characters we know and love, they can tell a whole new completely different story from Neo’s story. They can do what the animatrix did with telling a story within the world of the first movie or three but something new but have that feel what the first movie did. Fingers crossed 🤞🏾

finally a new matrix story

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just rewatched matrix now as a grown man and saw the animatrix. Excited. Die hard fan now.

i know is probably way too early since we have little to no info, but i cant wait to hear what you guys think the plot might be, please make a video about the possibilities.

Gimme a Merv spinoff!

I knew it!

Drew Goddard's dad was my baseball coach and I delivered their newspaper lol. So crazy.

Please cancel it...or make Neo wake up in a hospital where he had a nightmare called Matrix 4!

quick time event (QTE) is a method of context-sensitive gameplay

The Matrix has badly needed spin-offs for 2 decades! The animatrix was such a tease!

I still think a streaming series would be a smarter option than more films. At least it would give them more time draw out the story and the universe.

First thing I did was to check the date to make sure this video wasn't released on April Fool's Day. I really didn't expect this. Well, I am looking forward to seeing the direction of this new movie. I am a little concerned that it is not being written by either of the Wachowskis. However, I feel like the original trilogy and also Resurrections said everything that initially they (Original Trilogy) and Lana (OT and Resurrections) wanted to say with their films. Having Lana on as executive producer will hopefully result in this movie still remaining true to the spirit of the franchise, although I expect it will go in a new direction. "Wachowski Matrix" feels complete. Matrix by other people has potential. I don't expect it to be as good as the originals or as "meta" as Resurrections, but at least it will hopefully be a respectable continuation of the wonderful and complex world of The Matrix franchise.

M5: Retrogression🕋

We back baby

Also please bring back the old color scheme, as in lighting, dimness etc… Matrix 4 looked like a television movie.

...and I thought it was an April Fools joke. 😎👍

Yes bring it back !!!!!!!!

What can I say, the last one was more like a filler in Naruto I hope if this is true, they change the story to encompass the original Trilogy, now that AI is trending it would be based on some sort of story about it or like you said how the matrix was built by AI.

I enjoyed and like Matrix 4. I’m excited to see a new creative team make a new film and or series.

I want more of the matrix universe, i expect Matrix 5 is going to be a success, like Matrix 1 and 2. Another mind blowing cyberpunk!

Yeeeees!!!

It took a few hours for this to sink in and allow myself to get excited. While I absolutely liked resurrections, we can probably all agree something about it feels “different” and it walks to the very edge of breaking the diegetic world the trilogy created. This is the best thing that could happen. When someone says “it’s not hyperbole that The Matrix changed my life…” I can only imagine how much the people who watch this channel can relate to that. The fact that someone with experience adapting hi concept sci-fi (the Martian), a well written meta genre film (cabin in the woods), and incredibly well done action storytelling (daredevil Netflix) is taking on this project… that bodes well… VERY WELL. Lana Wachowski as an executive producer ensures the film will be “canon” and fingers crossed if her involvement can encourage Chad Stahelski to come back and do the fight choreography this could be what we’ve all believed in for so long.

I think a break is the right call.

I told you in your last video that I will bring it back so I went to wb and said announced the news

Get rid of Gruff, YAM II is cool but you need to expand on his character. Gruff is not a good Smith, bring back the old guy.

I could see a 3 moves set around The Second Renaissance. 1 The good time 2 The war 3 The start of the Matrix all set from the machine point of view. being very interesting.

It will be new characters and after 4 I think it’s the best idea to explore others in the world. The resurrection was missing the wow moments and new graphics … I can’t wait for the new stories and universe , hopefully get some spin off series too,

If the matrix4 was available on many platforms and was heavily watched, then the sales at the box office don't tell the full story,it was a hit , I can't wait for matrix 5...

I want to be excited about another film…but after Resurrections I’m going to temper my hype and expectations. Watching the first Matrix in theaters is still my favorite cinematic experience ever and nothing will change that. Fingers crossed if there is a 5th that its more like the original trilogy than the last outing.

This announcement came at the perfect time since the first Matrix movie turned 25 a few days before this. That type of planning actually gives me hope for the next installments more than it should. Hopefully we get to see some of the original cast again but I want Hugo Weaving as either Smith or a new Smith as he was the only program that bested Neo before the end of the war. I'm thinking Hugo Weaving could be used as a digital backup to when Smith was the best hunter of the redpills.

Please bring back LF as the real Morpheus. He’s absolutely epic.

This is my World, my World !

Gotta be a dope Director to make it work

What we all want to see is Neo and Smith back for a battle… Mr, Anderson !!! 🥋🤜🏻💥🕶️👊🏻💥

A spin off? A live-action of The Second Renaissance right up to the enslavement of humans in the Matrix would be awesome because they can pull from all current AI events happening with robotics, GPT, all of that would fit right in to that story.

Im so excited that they are not giving up on this world. I was gonna settle for video games to do the job lol

im worried about studio meddling
