Warner Brothers’ latest trailer drop will certainly make viewers question if they’re experiencing a glitch in the matrix. After a long wait rife with anxious anticipation, the studios has finally revealed the trailer for Lana Wachowski’s The Matrix Resurrections online, which was first unveiled at Cinemacon.
The trailer, which can also be watched in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu, offers viewers a glimpse into what Neo’s life is like after being traumatised by the events of the previous film The Matrix Revolutions. He is seen at a therapist's office narrating some of his ‘dreams that aren’t just dreams’. But of course, long time fans would know better than to trust this seemingly normal reality. As the trailer progresses, hints are dropped that they might indeed be right. At one point audiences are also able to witness a recreation of the iconic bullet stopping scene as well, promising a thrill ride that might also pay tribute to its awe-inspiring roots.
Check out the trailer here.
Prior to the trailer’s release, the filmmakers had let out an interactive trailer that gives fans a taste of an immersive experience eerily similar to that of Neo who tries to escape, offering viewers the classically simple choice - the red pill or the blue.
