A Glitch in the Matrix Review

The Matrix 4 title may have just leaked online.

Speculation unfolded over the weekend following a now deleted Instagram post. In it, hair stylist Shunika Terry alleged that she had received a trench coat wrap gift from Matrix 4 director Lana Wachowski and producer James McTeigue after working on the movie.

The trench coat in question appears to have come alongside a note which referred to the film as Matrix Resurrections, which understandably sent fans into a frenzy – though this has not yet officially been confirmed as the title.

Shunika is listed as The Matrix 4‘s key hairstylist in Germany on IMDb and was in Berlin in November.

While it’s still speculation right now, as a title, Matrix Resurrections makes sense. The film features characters who previously died in the franchise and begins with “Re” like the other sequels.

Returning this time around are Keanu Reeves as Neo and Carrie-Anne Moss as Trinity, though Laurence Fishburne and Hugo Weaving sit out as Morpheous and Agent Smith respectively.

Also sitting out is Gina Torres, who played Cas in The Matrix Reloaded and Revolutions. She recently opened up about not appearing in the upcoming instalment.

Speaking on the Variety and iHeart podcast The Big Ticket, she said: “Not to be bitter or anything, but the people that are actually in the movie, I believe, died.

“And the people that aren’t didn’t. So that’s all I have to say about that. I’m so curious about where they’re going with this. And what’s their jumping off point and what story they want because it just felt like they told it.”

Described as a “love story” by Keanu Reeves, The Matrix 4 will also welcome back Jada Pinkett Smith as Niobe – while Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Watchmen actor Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Neil Patrick Harris and Jonathan Groff join the cast this time around.

Yahya previously told GQ. “I can’t say too much but it’s so relevant and touches on themes people should be talking about in 2020, 2021, 2022.”

The Matrix 4 is scheduled for release on December 22, 2021
