Lana Wachowski is returning to the director’s chair for The Matrix 4 after helming the first three installments with her sister, Lily. She’s also co-writing the screenplay alongside Aleksander Hemon and David Mitchell. It’s still anyone’s guess as to what the trio are planning for the next chapter in the franchise. Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Neil Patrick Harris, and Jessica Henwick have already been cast. They will join series veterans Keanu Reeves, Carrie-Anne Moss, and Jada Pinkett-Smith, who will reprise their roles as Neo, Trinity, and Niobe.

The Matrix 4 is still without a release date, but it may begin filming next year.
