read from CBR:
Drew Goddard, best known for creating Netflix's Daredevil, is attached to write, direct, and produce an untitled fifth installment in the sci-fi franchise.
Warner Bros. is already in development on Matrix 5, which will be the first installment not directed by Lana or Lily Wachowski. However, Lana — who helmed 2021's The Matrix Resurrections — is attached as an executive producer. At this time, franchise stars Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss' involvement in Matrix 5 remains unknown.
"Drew came to Warner Bros. with a new idea that we all believe would be an incredible way to continue the Matrix world, by both honoring what Lana and Lilly began over 25 years ago and offering a unique perspective based on his own love of the series and characters," said Jesse Ehrman, Warner Bros. Motion Pictures president of production, in a statement. "The entire team at Warner Bros. Discovery is thrilled for Drew to be making this new Matrix film, adding his vision to the cinematic canon the Wachowskis spent a quarter of a century building here at the studio."
