The ‘Matrix’ franchise is officially getting a fifth installment, with ‘The Martian’ screenwriter Drew Goddard taking over writing and directing duties
Warner Bros announced on Wednesday, April 3, that a fifth installment of the sci-fi franchise is in the works. Former Matrix directors Lana and Lilly Wachowski won’t be taking helm of the film this time around, with The Martian screenwriter Drew Goddard stepping in for directing and writing duties. Lana, who helmed the 2021 Matrix film Resurrections, is attached as an executive producer.
“Drew came to Warner Bros. with a new idea that we all believe would be an incredible way to continue the Matrix world, by both honoring what Lana and Lilly began over 25 years ago and offering a unique perspective based on his own love of the series and characters,” Ehrman said. “The entire team at Warner Bros. Discovery is thrilled for Drew to be making this new Matrix film, adding his vision to the cinematic canon the Wachowskis’ spent a quarter of a century building here at the studio.
