‘The Matrix’ Diorama Is a Fond Reminder That The Franchise Is Dormant
The diorama is also a quiet reminder thatThe Matrixfans need to count their blessings: After getting presented with an unlikely sequel in 2022 withThe Matrix Resurrections, that universe will probably remain dormant for a while. The sequel was unlikely because director sistersLillyandLana Wachowskinever made it a secret that they were reluctant to follow up the original trilogy with anything – and, not by coincidence, this isone of the metalinguistic elementsof the fourth movie.
So, a diorama is the perfect collector’s item – or Christmas gift – for people who want to keep that unforgettable digital world alive, and also want toevoke Trinity’s distinct talent for action with a quick glance. The suggested retail price for the Trinity diorama is $75 USD, andyou can already pre-order itat the Diamond Select Toys website. Shipping is expected to start in Summer 2024.
Even though the Matrix universe is practically dead, fans still have material to prompt discussions and theories, especially when you factor in the selection of short films thatexpanded the universe inThe Animatrix. With society reaching a new milestone withthe evolution of AI, it’s also possible that The Matrix will come back in conversations about its nature and whether we should fear it.
