The trailer also shows Neo reuniting with Trinity, but they appear to be unfamiliar with each other. In the past Matrix sequels, the pair have fought against simulated-bodied villains named Agent Smiths.

Amid the trailer release, Reeves has been working on the fourth "John Wick" sequel.

Morpheus eventually offers Neo a red pill which takes the latter back to the Matrix. Throughout the rest of the action-packed trailer, Neo shows how he will stop at nothing to save Trinity.

Besides their overflowing excitement, many movie enthusiasts felt nostalgic after watching the fourth "Matrix" installment. A fan also noted that actor Lawrence Fishburn was missing from the trailer.

Fishburn used to play Morpheus before Abdul-Mateen II took over the iconic role. Another asked fellow commenters whether they missed the famous phrase from the simulated agents.

Besides the "Matrix" sequels, he is also known for movie franchises "Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure" and "John Wick." These films made him an established comedian and action star.
