Drew Goddard has taken the red pill. According to Deadline, Warner Bros. has reached an agreement with Goddard to write and direct an new installment in one of the studio’s most popular franchises.
Warner Bros. Motion Pictures President of Production Jesse Ehrman contirmed Goddard’s involvement saying ,”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.”
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.

Goddard’s film will be the fifth in the Matrix franchise, following 2021’s The Matrix Ressurections. At this time, it’s unclear if the franchise’s stars Keanu Reeves or Carrie-Anne Moss are set to return.
