Matrix’s Expanded Universe Secretly Ruined Matrix Resurrections 16 Years Before The Fourth Movie

The Matrix Resurrections was actually doomed from the beginning, as The Matrix‘s expanded universe secretly ruined the film 16 years before it was even released. Although the sequels to The Matrix were generally disliked, some viewers hoped that The Matrix Resurrections could pull off the magic of the original once again, with the highly-awaited film showing some promise in its initial trailers. However, one aspect of The Matrix Resurrections really hurt the film, but its fate was sealed years prior by the expanded universe.
