New century, same Neo. More than 20 years after The Matrix premiered in 1999, the franchise is back with a fourth installment, The Matrix Resurrections, with Keanu Reeves reprising his iconic role as Thomas Anderson, a.k.a. Neo. The highly anticipated blockbuster dropped its shocking first-look trailer on Sept. 9, showing Neo and Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss) re-entering the simulated, machine-controlled reality of The Matrix. Jefferson Airplane's "White Rabbit" hauntingly hums as Thomas details his "dreams that weren't just dreams" to a therapist, played by Neil Patrick Harris. "Am I crazy?" he asks. Thomas takes his blue pills, keeping him...

Update: Warner Bros. has revealed this morning what we first saw at CinemaCon, the trailer for The Matrix Resurrections. Why the more-than-two week delay? Because the studio’s James Wan movie Malignant is opening this weekend in cinemas (and on HBO Max). In recent years, Warners has typically debuted a fresh trailer for a hot film on top of another hot title that’s opening; i.e. the Birds of Prey trailer timed to It: Chapter Two exactly two years ago, and the Tenet 40-second teaser which ran with Hobbs & Shaw during the first weekend of August, 2019.
If you read our previous post below, you’ll finally be able to match all the words with images and understand what we’re talking about. The Matrix Resurrections, co-produced by the franchise’s long-time financier Village Roadshow, is a reboot and sequel of sorts: Keanu Reeves’ Neo and Carrie Anne Moss’ Trinity...

Choose between the red pill or the blue pill, and strap in to watch the first look at “The Matrix: Resurrections.”
The fourth installment in the Warner Bros. sci-fi film franchise sees the return of Keanu Reeves as Neo and Carrie-Anne Moss as Trinity, though neither remember each other — or their pasts.
In the new trailer, an anxious Neo is back inside the Matrix, sitting in his therapist’s office and recounting strange memories. “I’ve had dreams that weren’t just dreams,” says Neo, who appears to have a blue-pill dependency. “Am I crazy?”
“We don’t use that word in here,” his therapist, portrayed by Neil Patrick Harris, responds.
A melancholic Neo later runs into Trinity at a coffee shop with his former love interest asking: “Have we met?”
The nearly three-minute long trailer, scored to Jefferson Airplane’s “White Rabbit,” features striking action sequences and teases Neo...

Universal Pictures has canceled the release of its upcoming thriller “The Hunt.” The film was previously set to hit theaters Sept. 27.
“While Universal Pictures had already paused the marketing campaign for The Hunt, after thoughtful consideration, the studio has decided to cancel our plans to release the film, ” a spokesperson for Universal said in a statement. “We stand by our filmmakers and will continue to distribute films in partnership with bold and visionary creators, like those associated with this satirical social thriller, but we understand that now is not the right time to release this film.”
Insiders tell Variety that the studio came to the decision alongside “The Hunt” filmmakers. They also said it was a tough decision for the company, but studio leadership ultimately determined that the film could wait.

The heroes are back in the first full length trailer for “Watchmen.”
Regina King takes center stage in the new trailer unveiled Saturday at San Diego Comic-Con as she joins a motley crew of superheroes engaged in a violent revolt against the town’s leaders who are set on taking them down.
“We don’t do lollipops and rainbows,” King says. “We know those are just pretty colors that hide what the world really is… black and white”
The series is based on a DC comic book of the same name, which was written by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons in the 1980s and explores an alternate universe in which a police force embarks on a killing spree of the town’s superheroes. The new trailer captures the same sentiment, showing an army of masked police officers gathered before the head of police. “We convinced ourselves that they were gone,...

When a group of young, idealistic hippies came together in mid-Sixties San Francisco to form Jefferson Airplane, they couldn’t have possibly imagined they were kickstarting a saga that would continue for more than a half-century and mutate into more bizarre permutations than basically any other rock band in history. The full story would require a dense PowerPoint presentation and about eight hours to explain, but the shorthand is that the psychedelic Sixties band that created “White Rabbit” and “Somebody to Love” splintered into two factions at the end of...
