Keanu-Reeves-in-The-Matrix-Franchse

Mark Wahlberg's Infinite is the actor's panned take on The Matrix from three years ago, and it was ironically made even worse by Keanu Reeve's $159 million sequel. Infinite is a sci-fi movie that was released in 2021, and while it is now streaming on Netflix, the film wasn't a very big hit. Infinite was unfavorably compared to The Matrix in almost every review, a fact that proves that the Mark Wahlberg movie was doomed from the start.

The Matrix Resurrections Came Out Only 6 Months After Mark Wahlberg's Infinite The Two Movies Were Way Too Close To Each Other Close &#x2715 Remove Ads Infinite's false reality sci-fi story and heady themes means that it was impossible for it to not be compared to The Matrix. However, making a film so similar to The Matrix in June 2021 was a massive mistake, as The Matrix Resurrections was set to come out only six months later.

Even though Infinite was a far worse version of The Matrix, it had been nearly two decades since a The Matrix movie was released in 2021. This means that Infinite hypothetically could have pulled some interest from people who were looking for a The Matrix replacement. However, the looming threat of an official The Matrix legacy sequel completely killed any chances of this happening, kneecapping Infinite even further.
