Drew Goddard, the Oscar-nominated screenwriter of The Martian, has been set to write and direct a new Matrix movie at Warner Bros.

I started rolling my eyes before I saw Drew Goddard’s name, who apparently approached WB with his own idea. He is an incredibly gifted storyteller and I believe his passion for this world is sincere. I’m pretty excited to see what he has in mind.

    i thought it was a hilarious self-satire of not only the Matrix franchise but of soft-reboot sequels in general and a commentary about how all of the beating-of-dead-horses needs to stop, and i loved it. i laughed through the whole thing. i felt that it was a final nail in the coffin for any more Matrix films, and i have no clue how they’d possibly make another.

      I have no idea how that script got past the studio. It couldn’t have been more on-the-nose.
