The Matrix Resurrections Japanese TV Spot Features New Footage of Neo & Trinity

Warner Bros. Pictures has revealed the first The Matrix Resurrections TV spot for Lana Wachowski’s long-awaited fourth installment to the action sci-fi franchise. Starring Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss, the film is scheduled to make its debut in theaters and on HBO Max on December 22.

The international TV spot, which you can check out below, features a short introduction from Reeves as he invites Japanese fans to check out the new film in theaters which is set to arrive five days earlier in Japan. The video also provides some new action-packed footage teasing more Neo and Trinity scenes.

The Matrix Resurrections is directed by Lana Wachowski from a screenplay she co-wrote with Aleksander Hemon and David Mitchell. The fourth installment features the return of Keanu Reeves, Carrie-Anne Moss, and Jada Pinkett Smith, reprising their iconic roles as Neo, Trinity, and Niobe. Lambert Wilson and Daniel Bernhardt are also reprising their respective villainous roles of The Merovingian and Agent Johnson.

Joining them are franchise newcomers Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Jessica Henwick, Jonathan Groff, Neil Patrick Harris, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Christina Ricci, Telma Hopkins, Eréndira Ibarra, Toby Onwumere, Max Riemelt, and Brian J. Smith.

The three previous films—The Matrix (1999), The Matrix Reloaded (2003), and The Matrix Revolutions (2003)—have earned more than $1.6 billion at the global box office and were all top-10 domestic hits in their respective years of release. The Matrix Revolutions was also the first film ever to release simultaneously in every major country at the same hour around the world.
