one of the most successful trilogies of all time.

並發行了史上最為成功的三部曲。

The Matrix.

駭客任務。

Now, two decades later, another sequel is on the way.

如今，二十年過去了，另一部續集即將出現。

So grab a spoon, pick a pill, and find out everything there is to know about The Matrix

所以拿起湯匙、選顆藥丸，並找出所有能了解駭客任務 4 的

4.

線索

"All I'm offering you is the truth."

「我只能提供你事實。」

"Nothing more."

「僅此而已。」

Though no release date has yet been revealed, we have some pretty good guesses.

雖然還未公布上映日期，我們有些不錯的猜想。

Variety reported that the new Matrix film is scheduled to begin filming in early 2020.

許多報導聲稱駭客任務的電影預計在 2020 年初拍攝。

Considering how long it takes to film, edit, and create digital effects for a movie like

考量到要拍攝、剪輯、製作特效一部像駭客任務的電影

The Matrix, the release date likely won't be until the summer or fall of 2021.

所需的時間，上映日期最起碼要到 2021年的夏天或秋天後。

That would be in keeping with tradition.

那就是沿襲舊例。

The Matrix and The Matrix Reloaded hit theaters in late March 1999 and mid-May 2003, respectively,

駭客任務和駭客任務重裝上陣是在 1999 年三月底和 2003 年五月中上映的，

while The Matrix Revolutions, shot immediately after Reloaded, made its way to theaters just

而駭客任務最後戰役是緊接在重裝上陣後拍攝的，它是在半年後的

six months later in November 2003 so as to not keep fans waiting for the trilogy's conclusion.

2003 年十一月上映的，這好讓粉絲們不需等三部曲的完結篇太久。

Keanu Reeves, actor, officially became Keanu Reeves, legend, thanks to his turn as Neo

演員基努李維正式成為傳奇基努李維，這要歸功於他在駭客任務中

in The Matrix.

翻身成了尼歐

For most fans, if there's no Neo, there's no point to a new Matrix film.

對多數粉絲而言，要是沒有尼歐，新的駭客任務電影就沒意義了。

Well, don't worry, because Reeves is reportedly signed on for The Matrix 4.

別擔心，因為據報導稱基努李維已簽下駭客任務 4 了。

And he'll also be joined by co-star Carrie Anne-Moss, who became a Hollywood sensation

他也會和凱莉安摩絲聯袂出演，她因演出崔妮蒂而引起

as Trinity.

好萊塢轟動。

So far, though, there's no word regarding the return of other Matrix stars like Hugo

然而，目前為止並沒有駭客任務影星如雨果威明、

Weaving, Laurence Fishburne, or Jada-Pinkett-Smith.

勞倫斯費許朋和潔達蘋姬史密斯回歸的消息。

For now, we'll just have to wait and see.

目前我們只能靜待佳音。

It wouldn't be a Matrix movie if the Wachowskis weren't involved.

若華卓斯基姐妹沒有參與就不是駭客任務電影了。

After turning heads with the stylish 1996 crime drama Bound, Lana and Lily Wachowski

犯罪電影「驚世狂花」在新潮的 1996 年驚豔四座之後，拉娜和莉莉華卓斯基

made themselves legends with The Matrix in 1999, and went on to co-write and co-direct

於 1999 年因為駭客認為而造就自身傳奇，並且接續共同撰寫與執導

the entire trilogy.

整個三部曲。

So will they be involved with the new Matrix?

那麼她們會參與新一部駭客任務電影嗎？

For now, the answer is yes… and no.

目前來說，答案是會...也不會。

While Lily Wachowski apparently won't be involved, Lana Wachowski is set to direct, and co-write

莉莉華卓斯基顯然不會參與，拉娜華卓斯基已經確定會執導並與

the script with author Aleksander Hemon and Cloud Atlas screenwriter David Mitchell.

作家埃列桑德何蒙以及「雲圖」編劇大衛米切爾合寫劇本。

Warner Bros.

華納兄弟影業的

Picture Group head Toby Emmerich said,

董事長托比艾默奇說：

"We could not be more excited to be re-entering The Matrix with Lana.

「能與拉娜再次進入母體讓我們歡喜不已。

Lana is a true visionary - a singular and original creative filmmaker - and we are thrilled

拉娜是個真正的夢想家，是個卓越且有獨創性的電影製作人，而我們對於她要

that she is writing, directing, and producing this new chapter in The Matrix universe."

撰寫、執導和監製這全新篇章的駭客任務電影感到雀躍。」

One thing conspicuously absent from Variety's August 2019 report announcing the launch of

《綜藝》在2019年八月發出駭客任務 4 啟動的報導中，有件顯然沒有提到的事情，

The Matrix 4 was any mention of Laurence Fishburne's character Morpheus.

也就是關於勞倫斯費許朋所飾演的莫菲斯這個角色。

Variety reporter Justin Kroll later tweeted that this may actually be a hint as to the

《綜藝》的記者賈斯丁克羅接著就在推特表示這也許代表

plot of the film, writing,

電影情節的提示，他寫道：

"If you've asked yourself, 'Where's [Morpheus],' sources have told me this may point to where

「若你問自己說：『莫菲斯去哪了？』，線索告訴我這也許便指出電影設定的

and when the film is set as I've heard execs are looking at a variety of actors to possibly

時間和地點，同樣我也聽說電影監製在尋找不同的演員，

play 'young [Morpheus].'

很可能是飾演年輕版的莫菲斯。

Stay tuned on that front…"

敬請保持關注。」

The fact that Morpheus might be played by an actor younger than Fishburne suggests The

莫菲斯可能會由比費許朋年輕的演員飾演，這表示駭客任務 4

Matrix 4 takes place in a different time - or in a different timeline - than the original

和原版的駭客任務三部曲相比，可能是發生在不同的時空或

trilogy.

不同的時間線上。

And it also suggests they've decided to scrap the previously rumored Matrix reboot as well.

這也顯示出他們決定捨棄先前重啟駭客任務的計畫。

Yes it's true: back in March, 2017, The Hollywood Reporter broke the news that Warner Bros.

沒錯，這是真的。回到 2017 年三月，好萊塢記者透漏關於華納兄弟

had started preliminary development of a reboot/relaunch of The Matrix.

已開始初步推展重啟駭客任務的計畫。

After original Matrix producer Joel Silver approached Warner Bros. with the idea of a

在元祖駭客任務的製作人喬西佛帶著復歸的想法與華納兄弟接觸後，

revival, the studio reportedly began discussions with X-Men: The Last Stand and Incredible

據傳影視公司開始和X戰警：最後戰役以及無敵浩克的編劇

Hulk screenwriter Zak Penn to write a detailed narrative plot outline.

扎克佩恩討論撰寫劇情大綱的細節。

The Wachowskis were not involved with that project, and no actors were ever signed, but

華卓斯基姐妹並沒有參與這項計畫，演員也都沒簽約，

initial reports hinted that Warner Bros. would've liked to cast Creed star Michael B. Jordan.

但最初的報導表示華納兄弟本想金牌拳手的演員麥可·B·喬丹參與演出。

Now, though, with director Lana Wachowski and stars Keanu Reeves and Carrie Anne-Moss

如今，拉娜華卓斯基為導演，基努李維和凱莉安摩絲都準備好

all set to return to the world of The Matrix, it seems as though that reboot project is

回歸駭客任務世界了，看來重啟的計畫已胎死腹中，

dead - killed off by the original.

還是被始祖電影擊敗的。

"Ironically, this is not far from the truth.

「諷刺的是，這遠遠不及於現實。

Do you believe in fate?"

你相信命運嗎？」
