One of the most shocking parts of the official trailer for “The Matrix Resurrections” is how bright and colorful Lana Wachowski’s sequel looks. Gone is the cold and monotone atmosphere of the original trilogy and in its place is a vibrancy the franchise never had before. “The Matrix” feels different in its fourth outing, and change appears to have been an essential component of the entire production. In a new cover story for Entertainment Weekly, Keanu Reeves reflected on how different of a director Wachowski was on “Resurrections” compared to the first three movies.
As EW reports: “Reeves remembers that on the original trilogy, [Wachowski] was ‘more behind the monitor’ but ‘still hands-on.’ With ‘Resurrections,’ she was ‘participating more with the movement of the camera, and more interested in doing than rehearsing.’ It was less about prep and more about everyone’s readiness to find the unexpected in the moment.
