Zak Penn pratar om att expandera Matrix-världen

Zak Penn, manusförfattaren bakom bland annat kommande Ready Player One och The Incredible Hulk, arbetar för tillfället på en Matrix-reboot och har tydligen stora planer för Matrix-universumet. I en intervju med Screenrant berättade Penn hur han besvärade Warner Bros i flera år för att återuppväcka Matrix-världen:

"I've been working on Matrix right now. Which is in...a phase right now. That's a franchise I desperately want to see brought back and, I can't go in to too much detail, but I've been harassing Warner Bros. for years to try to get it going again so that's one thing I'm working on and I've been working on a bunch of other things too"

Zak Penn jämför också hur Matrix-världen och den virtuella OASIS-världen i Ready Player One skiljer sig åt och vilken potential det finns i denna typ av universum:

"I think OASIS is similar, both the Matrix and OASIS are similar in that they are brilliant ideas for universes. And they are not, you know, when it came out about Matrix, people were like 'Oh no, there going to reboot Matrix' I was like, Why, I'm not insane. I mean, the Matrix is still one of my favorite...they'd re-release The Matrix and people would go see it"

"I was at the premiere and I was still like, this was better than I ever expected. So I just think that universe is brilliant, I think OASIS is like the action-comedy version of that and it doesn't always have to be the same characters, you could go in so many different directions so..."
