Priyanka Chopra to star in Hollywood’s The Matrix 4?

Priyanka Chopra Jonas is allegedly in final negotiations to join the star-studded cast list of Warner Bros’ highly-anticipated sci-fi film, The Matrix 4 (2021).

The fourth instalment of the Matrix franchise was announced in August 2019 by co-creator and director Lana Wachowski.

The first Matrix film was released in 1999 followed by the back-to-back release of The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolution in 2003.

The Matrix 4 (2021) will see American actors Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss reprise their roles as Neo and Trinity.

According to a report by Variety, Priyanka Chopra is set to join the upcoming film. However, the actress has not alluded to her possible involvement in the project.

If reports are believed to be true, Priyanka will be joining a host of newcomers to the sci-fi franchise after the original trilogy.

Actors like Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Jessica Henwick, Neil Patrick Harris and Toby Onwumere have joined the film.

Priyanka Chopra is familiar with roles that require a lot of action. She has appeared in films like Baywatch (2017) and the  ABC series Quantico (2015-2018) where her roles demanded action sequences.

Alongside the list of newcomers, familiar faces in the film franchise will also be back in The Matrix 4 (2021).

Reportedly Jada Pinkett-Smith and Lambert Wilson are also set to reprise their roles as Niobe and The Merovingian respectively.

As of yet, we do not know the roles of the newest cast members, including Prinyanks Chopra’s character.

Yet, it is expected that The Matrix 4 (2021) will focus more on the new host of characters as opposed to the returning ones.

Priyanka, who is reportedly near to closing the deal to join the franchise, is trying to figure out her schedule.

The actress is aiming to film scenes for The Matrix 4 (2021) alongside shooting for her upcoming Amazon series Citadel. Priyanka Chopra will star opposite Scottish actor, Richard Madden.

Production of the film is scheduled to start imminently in northern California. The film is written by Lana Wachowski, Bosnian-American writer, Aleksandar Hemon and English novelist and screenwriter, David Mitchell.

The entire team have remained tight-lipped regarding the storyline of the film, therefore, heightening the anticipation.

The Matrix 4 is scheduled to hit the big screen on May 21, 2021. Fans of Priyanka Chopra will surely be looking forward to her appearance in the film. It will certainly be a date to note down in your diary.
