The Matrix 4 trailer: Fans react to ‘extremely impressive’ footage of Keanu Reeves in new film

Lana Wachowski film ‘brought the house down’ at CinemaCon

The Matrix 4 trailer is being hyped up as something to behold.

Cinema exhibitors and select members of the press gathered for a Warner Bros panel at CinemaCon in Las Vegas, where they were shown the film’s trailer. It revealed the title to be The Matrix: Resurrections.

To date, leaks of the new Lana Wachowski film have, thankfully, been kept to a minimum, but fans will be happy to hear that it sounds like it will be a wild ride.

“I just saw the trailer for The Matrix: Resurrections at CinemaCon and it looks so bada**,” Scott Menzel wrote. “I was so worried that it wasn’t going to WOW me but I was totally wrong. The only thing that shocked me is that a few of the main characters don’t appear in the trailer.”

“The Matrix 4 trailer is absolutely stunning,” Rebecca Murray added, with James Preston Poole stating: “Extremely impressive footage, truly brought the house down.”

Brandon Davis stated: “Keanu Reeves looks fantastic as Neo. Neo & Trinity were WRECKING SH!T by the end!!! Motorcycles, helicopters, rocket launchers, jumping off buildings in incredible slow-mo.”

Warner Bros has a history releasing the trailer shortly after its CinemaCon debut – The Independent has contacted the studio for comment.
