Matrix is officially opening again with this 4th instalment after 18 years. Check the Matrix Resurrection release date in India, IMAX update, and Priyanka Chopra’s role in this movie!
Matrix 4 Release Date in India?
Matrix 4 or Matrix Resurrections will be released in India on 22 December 2021. This will be a Wednesday release, (not Friday).
It is coming out in the USA on the same release date as well. That will make it the main Christmas release from Warner Bros this year.
Note that it has got a ‘U/A’ certificate in India, while in the USA, it has been Rated-R. That might mean that some scenes might be cut from the movie when it will be shown in Indian theatres.
The Original MATRIX movie was also re-released this month in India to celebrate the return of this franchise.
Keanu Reeves will again reprise his character of Neo with Carrie-Anne Moss back as Trinity. Bollywood (& now Hollywood) star Priyanka Chopra is also in the movie. Learn more about her role or character below in this article.
Will it be dubbed in Hindi?
Matrix Resurrections is confirmed to be dubbed in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu languages in India. You can also watch it in English if you want.
Matrix 4 in IMAX?
Good News! Matrix 4 will be released in IMAX theatres. But while it is shot with ‘IMAX-certified Cameras’, the movie will not be available in the IMAX format.
You will get the normal 2:39:1 aspect ratio on the IMAX theatre. Matrix Resurrections is only digitally-remastered (DMR) for IMAX presentation.
Also, No 3D version is created by the studio for Matrix 4. So, the only options to experience it are 2D or IMAX 2D. Another cool option is 4DX format but also without the 3D of course.
Just to check, here is a list of all MCU movies in IMAX.
Priyanka Chopra’s role in Matrix 4
Priyanka Chopra is playing the role of ‘Sati’ in Matrix 4 Resurrections. The character was introduced in 2003’s The Matrix Revolutions and was seen as a child. Now, Priyanka will play the older version of her.
Sati is the daughter of Rama-Kandra and is left with ‘The Oracle’ during that film. At the end of that movie, Sati created a sunrise (she can modify the Matrix code), which hints that her role might be very significant in this movie.
Fun Fact: Director Lana was especially interested in casting her for this role. On her 1st day, she had to recite all her dialogue in a straight 45-minute shooting because the director wanted a perfect sunset in the background.
Adding an Indian character might help it perform better in the country. Marvel’s Eternals also had a Bollywood actor and actress.
About the Movie
Initially, the franchise was concluded with the trilogy ending in 2003 by the directors. But in 2017 it was reported that Warner Bros is developing a sequel. That was later confirmed in 2019 as a direct continuation in the series.
Keanu and Carrie will return to play Neo and Trinity respectively, but some other main cast members have been replaced.
Yahya Abdul-Mateen II will play Morpheus now, who was recently seen in DC’s Aquaman movie as Black Manta. Agent Smith is also replaced with Jonathon Groff here.
Lana Wachowski will also be back to direct this 4th part of the franchise. She directed the previous trilogy along with her sister, but this time, she is the sole director.
Talking about the runtime, it is 2 hours and 28 minutes long.
Let’s see how well this movie performs in India because Spider-Man No Way Home is having a great box office right now.
The official synopsis reads “From visionary filmmaker Lana Wachowski comes “The Matrix Resurrections,” the long-awaited fourth film in the groundbreaking franchise that redefined a genre. The new film reunites original stars Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss in the iconic roles they made famous, Neo and Trinity.”
