The Matrix relaunch in early stages at WB

[Ubik]

Thanks for the in depth update. Really interesting!

No problem!

Sense8's John Toll about to come on board as cinematographer. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/be...trix-4-1233871

Curious to see if they will go with Tykwer and co. for composers or Giacchino (doubt they will bring Davis back).

Okay, Okay now that it is out there what do we think the odds are we might see someone, or many persons, from Sense 8 in a Matrix reboot? Please mention your choices as well. I don't know why, but I would love to see Tina Desai as a Matrix villain. Having said that I now can not picture a Matrix reboot without the entire cast of Sense 8.

There's no way they are not asking Doona Bae at minimum.

Oh I just assumed she was a given.

I want to see Valeria Bilello again

And hey, she said she would absolutely take the red pill

What if you have to choose between the blue pill and the red pill?

Without a doubt the red one. Knowing that there is a way to dig and discover something I would never be able to go home, get into bed and sleep, thinking that I missed something unique. I am a very curious person and, at my peril, I never turn my head away.

Sense8's Toby Onwumere cast! https://deadline.com/2019/12/matrix-...el-1202805820/
I think the (almost inevitable) Doona Bae role went to Jessica Henwick instead: https://deadline.com/2019/10/matrix-...ss-1202760995/



The rest of the cast and aside of Reeves and Moss includes Jada Pinkett Smith returning from Matrix 2&3, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II (if you are watching HBO's excellent Watchmen, then you know him from that for sure after the last couple episodes... but I will spare you the spoilers if you haven't caught up), Jonathan Groff (lead on David Fincher's Mindhunter on Netflix), and Neil Patrick Harris (in his first scifi role since Starship Troopers).

Henwick and Abdul-Mateen II are described as leads.

Important to note Sense8's (and Stranger Things') excellent casting director Carmen Cuba is handling the casting here too, so I expect the actors to have great chemistry.

Coming May 21, 2021. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/he...-dates-1261939

Some solid casting choices there! I think Keanu's recent popularity is going to have to carry this to a certain extent and was probably a big factor in it getting the green light. I hope the script is up to snuff and they have a wothwhile story to tell.

Really hope we get Tina Desai...

BTW, filming will begin in SF in about 3 weeks from now!
