The next film in The Matrix franchise will further please fans of the past movies - Carrie-Ann Moss will reprise her role as Trinity.
Warner Bros Picture Group chairman Toby Emmerich said in a statement: "We could not be more excited to be re-entering The Matrix with Lana. Lana is a true visionary - a singular and original creative filmmaker - and we are thrilled that she is writing, directing and producing this new chapter in The Matrix universe."
