After a few years spent with his career on an arguable downward slide, the seemingly eternally young Keanu Reeves managed to kick his career back into high gear with 2014’s John Wick, a take no prisoners action flick that quickly became one of the sleeper hits of that year. Having just followed that up with the – according to some – even better sequel John Wick: Chapter 2, Reeves is now firmly planted back near the top of Hollywood, and can likely do whatever project he wants at this point.

Of course, whenever the thought of Reeves doing a new film comes up, the actor is inevitably always asked about returning to his two most famous franchises: Bill & Ted, and The Matrix. During a recent talk show appearance, Reeves revealed his story pitch for a potential Bill & Ted 3, but that film still doesn’t seem to have made it past the idea stage. On the Matrix front, rumors have swirled a few times in recent years about possibly continuing the series, but none have turned out to have any concrete foundation.

That said, there may be some hope for Matrix fans yet. During a recent interview with Yahoo! Movies, Reeves was once again asked about reprising the role of Neo, and revealed that he’s open to returning for a fourth Matrix film. However, he has a couple of conditions that must be met before he’ll sign on the dotted line. First, the Wachowskis would have to return as writers/directors. Second, the story has to be worthwhile. Here’s Reeves’ full quote:

“The Wachowskis would have to be involved. They would have to write it and direct it. And then we’d see what the story is, but yeah, I dunno, that’d be weird, but why not? People die, stories don’t, people in stories don’t.”

a new matrix film could be a good idea, while 2 and 3 wasn't really what people may hoped for after the first one, they were still enjoyable and good movies.

I guess the Story would need more then just a return of evil matrix bots and action packed scenes, it should be something bigger then so many other revivals, well i still think robocop remake is very good, but there are a lot movies based on older movies that the world don't really needs.

And so it will be hard for a new matrix film to be as good as the first or even better, but even if not, a lot people will see the movie and it might be a good chance to make money, when there is still a good movie coming out by this idea, why not - but a new matrix with the same impact from the first will be hard work for all making the movie.

thats awesome matrix four. i am waiting for more on this topic
awesome job @Rhialto KEANU it up.
