Wouldn't be surprised if this is the actual approach for the movie. Does feel a little insulting to those who do like the sequels. movieweb.com/the-matrix-4-synopsis-canon-erasure/?fbclid=IwAR0y3uzQ3FEvsJYN-2QOdHR07CD6YL4ymd2p1YWx0S3MccB7YttYNubY7Z4From the official Warner Bros. synopsis: "The Matrix Resurrections is a continuation of the story established in the first MATRIX film. It reunites Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss as cinematic icons Neo & Trinity in an expansion of their story that ventures back into the Matrix and even deeper down the rabbit hole. A mind-bending new adventure with action and epic scale, it's set in a familiar yet even more provocative world where reality is more subjective than ever and all that's required to see the truth is to free your mind. 20 years after the first film, the franchise that helped define pop culture at the turn of the century is back for a continuation and extension of the original movie. The Matrix remains in the zeitgeist as a film that has changed the way we look at cinema and reality itself. With its game changing action and visual effects, The Matrix helped pave the way for films to follow."

Niobe played by Jada Pinkett Smith was a Matrix 2 character and she's in this so this must be bullshit.

I don’t know if I like that idea of them ignoring those 2 movies, but ok.

What about the Animatrix, are they going to just ignore that too?

They just want to follow this "ignore the previous film(s) and make this the "true" sequel" trend used by Halloween (2018), Terminator: Dark Fate, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, etc.

I’d wait until more concrete information comes along.

Somehow I suspect they're just telling people what they want to hear. For one thing, the plot as seen in the trailer makes no sense as a direct continuation of the first film. Plus, as Downey/Lux pointed out, Jada is supposedly in this.
Then I doubt the Wachowski's have it in them to wipe 2 and 3 from canon. They seem like the types to feel they made misunderstood masterpieces.

Clearly they have stolen this idea from the Godzilla franchise.

Dumb idea. I assume this would be a shit show, Wachowski bros have snorted too much coke.

If all Matrix sequels begin with 'R' what will the next one be called? Matrix Retard Matrix Rain Day Matrix Resting Bitch Face Matrix Rollover Matrix Roadtrip Matrix Rocky Road
Matrix Regurgitate

Hopefully not. Reloaded might not be great, but it's too good to throw away.

The article stated that Fishburne was not asked to reprise his role as Morpheus. I can’t imagine why he wasn’t asked back. I just thought he turned it down, but that does bother me knowing he wasn’t even asked to come back.

I'm not against them ignoring the sequels, but if so why not bring Laurence Fishburne back? He was a great part of the franchise. I'm disappointed that he's not returning.

It could be that he’s a time traveling Morpheus and he’s a very young iteration of the character. Maybe Fishburne will be back in a 5th one as older Morpheus?!?
