It’s official: a fourth Matrix movie is in the works and it will star the original Neo and Trinity characters played by Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss.

Warner Bros. has announced that Lana Wachowski and Lilly Wachowski will write and direct the film together with Aleksandar Hemon and David Mitchell. Sources have also said that production will start in the first part of 2020.

"Many of the ideas Lilly and I explored 20 years ago about our reality are even more relevant now," Wachowski said. "I'm very happy to have these characters back in my life and grateful for another chance to work with my brilliant friends."

The first "Matrix" film hit theaters in 1999, and was the first part of a trilogy that cumulatively grossed more than $1.6 billion at the global box office.

No plot details have been announced for the upcoming movie, and a release date has not yet been confirmed.
