Keanu Reeves as Neo in The Matrix Resurrections

Warner Bros. has released a new trailer for The Matrix Resurrections, and it looks like Neo (Keanu Reeves) is trapped in a dull life within the titular false reality once more. Of course, that likely won't last long.

"They taught you good," says Morpheus (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, taking over the role originally played by Laurence Fishburne). "Made you believe their world was all you deserved. But some part of you knew that was a lie. Some part of you remembered what was real."

Directed by Lana Wachowski, the fourth film in the Matrix series brings back original cast members Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss alongside newcomers such as Jessica Henwick and Jonathan Groff — and also reprises at least one iconic line concerning martial arts. It looks as action-packed as you'd expect, with the love story between Neo and Trinity also returning once more.

"She believed in me," says Neo. "It's my turn to believe in her."

The Matrix Resurrections infiltrates theatres and HBO Max on Dec. 22.
