The upcoming fourth movie is easily one of the most highly anticipated new films currently in the offing, featuring the return of beloved characters like Keanu Reeves’ Neo and Carrie-Anne Moss’s Trinity with Lana Wachowski directing solo. Set in a world where sentient machines have overthrown humans and imprisoned them in a simulation called the Matrix, the original trilogy follows the adventures of a human with fantastical powers who fights to overthrow the Machines and save humanity.

Since then, fans have been curious to see what the future of the franchise could be, and now The Matrix 4 is set to deliver on those hopes.

The first series of Matrix movies ended with 2003’s The Matrix Revolutions, which felt quite conclusive. The original trilogy by writers/directors Lilly Wachowski and Lana Wachowski created a unique, immersive world populated by brilliant characters and sci-fi technology that pushed the limits of imagination. The Matrix fans will always debate and discuss the symbolism behind the red pill, but at least the physical effects are easier to determine.Ever since The Matrix was first released back in 1999, the franchise has evolved into one of the most popular movie series of all time. Rewatching Morpheus' monologue in 2020, the " a prison for your mind" line takes on a whole new meaning, and the pills themselves perhaps represent hormone therapy. The revelation that The Matrix was written as a transgender allegory adds a new spin to the red and blue pill scene. Strangely, right-wing politicians have tried to take ownership of the term to push their own agendas, earning a quick and strong rebuttal from Lilly Wachowski, whose views couldn't be further removed from the public figures now trying to twist the red pill concept. Over the past 2 decades, the meaning of The Matrix's red pill has shifted considerably in wider culture. The Wachowskis describe the red pill as a form of virus, and the effects certainly have the hallmarks of a classic computer attack - cracking open the Machines' technology to let the a third party in. Taking the red pill causes a pod shutdown, which is evidently a dangerous process, as Neo enters fibrillation shortly before emerging from the pod fluid. After lighting up the correct pod, the pill's " disruption" interferes with Neo's life support system, releasing him from an inert state. However, it seems the red pill does more than just serve as a location beacon. But while choosing between the red and blue pills is a perfect visual representation of the concept of reality, these drugs actually do something tangible to their subject. Only by resisting the fear that truth brings can a person see reality, and only then can they return to guide their fellow slaves to freedom. The humans inhabiting The Matrix are slaves who have only ever known shadows on the wall of a cave. The dilemma Morpheus presents Neo is essentially Plato's Allegory of the Cave framed in the context of a science fiction dystopia.

The Matrix's famous red pill/blue pill scene is widely considered a key moment in the film's philosophy. See the world for what it truly is and unplug from the illusion to see reality for the very first time. But take the red pill, and become enlightened. Take the blue pill and forget the encounter ever happened - an instant return to the digital world crafted by Machines to appease the enslaved human population. Morpheus has freed many minds from the simulated cage that is The Matrix, and each time, he offers the subject a choice. Everyone remembers Neo choosing the red pill at the beginning of The Matrix, but this drug is much more than just a philosophical metaphor.
