It is no secret that stunts have always come naturally to Tom Cruise. When he scaled Dubai’s Burj Khalifa in 2010, he appeared to accomplish the feat effortlessly, as evidenced by the now viral picture, which further cemented his reputation as Hollywood’s unrivaled fearless elite.

Fast forward to 2021, when Will Smith took on the same monumental climb, but with an apparent gripping struggle that starkly contrasts with Cruise’s seemingly effortless climb, reminding fans of the divide between Hollywood’s daredevil elite and the mere mortals.

Channing Tatum is determined to continue his trilogy streak.
After wrapping up “Magic Mike” with the third film in 2023, Tatum confirmed that the long-awaited follow-up to 2014 sequel “22 Jump Street” is still in development.
Tatum told ComicBook that he and co-star Jonah Hill have “been trying” to get the third “21 Jump Street” feature greenlit for years. Tatum and Hill co-starred as former teen nemeses turned police academy buddies who go undercover as high schoolers to thwart a rising drug gang. The duo reprised their respective roles for the 2014 film that saw their characters go to college.
During the infamous Sony leaked emails hack, it was revealed that a third “Jump Street” installment was planned to be a crossover with the “Men in Black” franchise. The feature, tentatively titled “Mib 23,” was never made.

Is 23 Jump Street Coming Back For Third Chapter? ( Photo Credit – Prime Video )
Back when Sony officially put the third chapter of the 23 Jump Street trilogy into motion, a feature film adaptation of the Johnny Depp-led 1980s TV series, it was revealed that the movie was being designed as a crossover with the Men in Black franchise, but it never happened. Reflecting on the R-rated comedy blockbusters, Channing Tatum has opened up that he is still very much interested in making 23 Jump Street with Jonah Hill.
Talking with ComicBook.com while promoting his upcoming movie Fly Me to the Moon, the Step Up star said, “There is a project that was written and it’s still the best script that I’ve ever read for a third movie. When asked by co-star Scarlett Johansson what happened, the actor said, “It’s just a lot of bureaucracy, kind of above the line stuff.

Channing Tatum revealed his strong interest in pursuing 23 Jump Street with Jonah Hill. Although the film was initially developed as a sequel to their successful R-rated comedies, 21 Jump Street (2012) and 22 Jump Street (2014), it encountered numerous roadblocks. The Best Script He’s Ever Read Tatum described the project’s script as the best third sequel to any franchise he had ever read. Despite this, the journey to bring it to fruition has been challenging. He mentioned that the sequel wasn’t made due to a lot of bureaucracy and other complications. Your preaching to the choir, man, he noted...

Of all the haplessly unoriginal sequels, prequels, reboots, and remakes that have made our eyes and ears bleed out of sheer resentment, the world could have done us all a little favor and manifested the wildly overdue 23 Jump Street. However, Hollywood is not the first place where bureaucracy moseys itself over to stand in the way of creative vision.

Well, well, well. Look what the cat dragged in. A Channing Tatum film that was lost in the alleys of Hollywood seems to be making its way out of the crowd and into the spotlight!

It was recently revealed by Tatum himself that a script for the unfinished film 23 Jump Street (a sequel in the 21 Jump Street franchise) was the best one he ever read. Somewhere, down the line, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse director Rodney Rothman, allegedly picked it up!

21 Jump Street came out in 1987 with Johnny Depp portraying the role of a high-school student while being an undercover cop. This TV series was remade into a 2012 film starring Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill.

There’s no denying the fanbase that exists for Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill’s ‘21 Jump Street’ films. People love them. And clearly there’s a good number of fans, as the films are seemingly on constant rotation on cable. But for some reason, the planned “23 Jump Street” never went into production. Adding to the confusion is a new comment from Tatum, who thinks the script for the film in amazing.

Out of all the projects Channing Tatum has scored to date, perhaps one of his most iconic ones was none other than 2012’s comedy-action 21 Jump Street. It starred him and Jonah Hill in the lead as police officers who go undercover as students to bust a drug ring. This film was a classic blockbuster, both critically and commercially, that went on to spawn even a sequel.

However, a sequel was all that it could bring after the original movie, with reports about it getting a crossover movie with the Men in Black franchise biting the dust soon after surfacing online. But that seems to be about to change as Tatum exclusively presented some hot uplifting updates for fans about this very unmade third film in the film series, 23 Jump Street.

Channing Tatum has been chatting about the unmade 23 Jump Street movie and it seems that the actor is still down to do it.
Channing Tatum is currently promoting his upcoming film Fly Me To The Moon, but the press tour has had him revisit another project.
During a chat with ComicBook.com, Tatum said the unproduced 23 Jump Street had an excellent script.
“There is a project that was written and it’s still the best script that I’ve ever read for a third movie,” Tatum told the outlet. According to Tatum, the third film failed to get made because of “a lot of bureaucracy, kind of above the line stuff. It’s really hard to get it made and we’ve been trying to get it done.”

In what sounds like a Hollywood fever dream, Channing Tatum is campaigning for a blockbuster franchise crossover that would truly be out of this world.
Following the news in the 2014 Sony email leak, Tatum confirmed that a crossover of 21 Jump Street and Men in Black, entitled Mib 23, was once in development, and he’s still hoping the ambitious movie gets made.
“There is a project that was written and it’s still the best script that I’ve ever read for a third movie,” he told ComicBook.com after starring alongside Jonah Hill in the 2012 action comedy 21 Jump Street and its sequel 22 Jump Street (2014).
An adaptation of the 1987-1991 Fox series, they played two arguably youthful-looking cops assigned to go undercover in a high school. Original stars Johnny Depp, Holly Robinson and Peter DeLuise made cameos in the movie, with Richard Grieco and Dustin Nguyen appearing in the sequel.

Perhaps the best thing to come out of Hollywood's never-ending attempts to turn hit TV shows into movies is Phil Lord & Chris Miller's hilarious take on "21 Jump Street" starring Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill. Taking a cue from the beloved TV series that premiered in 1987 with cast members like Johnny Depp and Richard Grieco, the 2012 action comedy follows the awkward but smart Morton Schmidt (Jonah Hill) and dimwitted, popular star athlete Greg Jenko (Channing Tatum) in their post-high school lives as they become unlikely friends and partners on the police force when they're assigned to an undercover assignment to bust a drug ring in high school.
"21 Jump Street" has just enough meta sensibilities in the story to poke fun at Hollywood's formula of turning TV shows into movies without becoming a full-blown parody, and it also features delightful supporting turns from Brie Larson, Dave Franco, Nick Offerman,...

In September 2014, Sony Pictures announced the development of a third movie, with Rodney Rothman, known for his work on “22 Jump Street”, hired to write the script. Several months later, during the infamous Sony hack, plans emerged for “23 Jump Street” to merge with the “Men in Black” series.
According to Variety, in March 2016, director James Bobin was set to lead the crossover project, but unfortunately, it never came to fruition.

Channing Tatum is still hoping the long-rumored third 21 Jump Street film becomes a reality.
In an interview with ComicBook.com published Monday, the Fly Me to the Moon actor reflected on reading a script for a third 21 Jump Street movie that would once again star himself and Jonah Hill.
“There is a project that was written, and it’s still the best script that I’ve ever read for a third movie,” Tatum said.
Following the release of the two successful 21 Jump Street films, Sony had been tossing around the idea of a crossover movie featuring two of its biggest comedy franchises, 21 Jump Street and Men in Black. Hill would later reveal that the merging of the movies was unlikely to happen.

Channing Tatum recently told ComicBook.com that he is still very much interested in making “23 Jump Street” with Jonah Hill. The film would serve as a sequel to their R-rated comedy blockbusters “21 Jump Street” (2012) and “22 Jump Street” (2014).
A third movie was officially put in development by Sony Pictures in Sept. 2014 with “22 Jump Street” scribe Rodney Rothman hired to pen the script. It was then revealed a few months later during the notorious Sony hack that “23 Jump Street” was being designed as a crossover with the “Men in Black” franchise. Variety reported in March 2016 the crossover film was moving forward with director James Bobin, but it ultimately never got off the ground.

Bennett Miller's "Moneyball" is a lovely lie of a film. It's the Hollywood version of Michael Lewis' already-massaging-the-truth book about Billy Beane's epiphanic Major League Baseball success with sabermetrics (a statistics-based measurement of a player's value to the team) in rebuilding a partially gutted-by-free-agency Oakland Athletics team after the departure of their best offensive players. In Miller's film, unorthodox general manager Beane (Brad Pitt) hires stat nerd Peter Brand (based on front office guru Paul DePodesta and played by Jonah Hill) to help him build a contender for the cash-strapped A's by stocking their lineup with statistically productive players cast off or ignored by the rest of the league.
In the end, it works: the A's go on a (statistically unpredictable) 20-game win streak at the end of the season, win the American League West and go to the American League Division Series where they're defeated by the Minnesota Twins.

Ryan Gosling is making the dreams of “Saturday Night Live” writers come true.
In addition to reprising his iconic role for a sequel to skit “Papyrus,” penned by Julio Torres, it’s now been revealed that Gosling’s viral “Beavis and Butt-Head” sketch was a shelved idea from 2018, with Jonah Hill originally being set to portray one half of the cartoon-character duo.
“SNL” hair stylist Jodi Mancuso and makeup artist Louie Zakarian both told The Ankler that the skit was originally pitched when Jonah Hill was hosting a Season 44 episode in November 2018. However, it was canceled due to challenges with the necessary prosthetics.
“Even at that time it was late coming into the show, so there wasn’t a lot of prep time and I wasn’t fully happy with the wigs,” Mancuso said. “Then I think we tried it again, and again I wasn’t happy with it. So...

In an intriguing revelation, the Saturday Night Live crew shared that the now-viral “Beavis and Butt-Head” sketch, which featured guest host Ryan Gosling and Mikey Day, had been in the pipeline since 2018. The idea initially starred Jonah Hill when he joined the prestigious five-timers club as host back in November of that year. During that weekend’s episode, not only did Gosling and Day dress up as the iconic characters Beavis and Butt-Head, but their mannerisms were uncanny. They talked, laughed, and sat like the MTV icons, much to the delight of audiences. The Elusive Sketch’s Journey The show’s hair...

“Saturday Night Live” hair stylist Jodi Mancuso and makeup artist Louie Zakarian recently told The Ankler (via People) that the now-iconic Beavis and Butt-Head sketch with Ryan Gosling and Mikey Day was originally pitched for host Jonah Hill in 2018. The “Superbad” favorite hosted the Nov. 3, 2018 episode during Season 44 with musical guest Maggie Rogers.
“Even at that time it was late coming into the show, so there wasn’t a lot of prep time and I wasn’t fully happy with the wigs. Then I think we tried it again, and again I wasn’t happy with it,” Mancuso said. “So we fully gave up on it, this is not going to happen.”
The sketch finally made it to air in April 2024. Heidi Gardner played a NewsNation anchor hosting a discussion on AI, but the event is disrupted by two audience members who look exactly like Beavis and Butt-Head, played...

In April of this year, a sketch on Saturday Night Live left viewers in stitches and amassed millions of views. This viral sensation, featuring Ryan Gosling and Mikey Day as Beavis and Butt-Head, was not an overnight creation. Rather, it was the result of a plan years in the making. A Sketch Six Years in the Making Jodi Mancuso, the hairstylist, and Louie Zakarian, a makeup artist, revealed to The Ankler that the concept for this sketch originated back in 2018. Initially, it was supposed to star Jonah Hill, who was hosting SNL at that time. Mancuso recounted,Even at that...

Few Saturday Night Live sketches from last season were as celebrated and pored over as the brilliantly dumb “Beavis and Butt-Head” bit, in which Ryan Gosling and Mikey Day attended a boring talk show on artificial intelligence as the famous Mike Judge cartoon characters. Gosling and Day looked so insane that not even Heidi Gardner — who was playing the moderator — could keep herself from laughing, setting off a chain reaction of breaking onstage.
That sketch wouldn’t have been possible without two key behind-the-scenes figures — hair stylist Jodi Mancuso and makeup artist Louie Zakarian.

Filmmaker Shane Black is known for directing the MCU film Iron Man 3 as well as black comedies such as Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and The Nice Guys. The director shot to fame as a writer, creating the Lethal Weapon franchise and also writing the Arnold Schwarzenegger starrer Last Action Hero. He also played a role in the star’s action film Predator.
One of Black’s most expensive sales was the screenplay of the Samuel L. Jackson starrer The Long Kiss Goodnight. The film also starred Geena Davis and Brian Cox and the screenplay reportedly sold for $4 million at the time. However, the failure of the film at the box office reportedly made Shane Black a Hollywood pariah.

The concept of the limited series swept the TV world recently, and it felt like it happened overnight.
It is not an entirely new idea, as miniseries have existed since the time of radio dramas.
However, people lost interest in them at some point, and the era seemed to come to an end.
So much so that in 1991, the Emmy Awards merged Outstanding Miniseries with Outstanding TV Movie.
After numerous name changes to the category, the concept suddenly resurged -- the limited series was born.
With the popularity of American Horror Story, in 2015 they changed the category to Outstanding Limited Series.
TV Shows Should Make Stars, Not Depend On Them
But now, the idea carries almost no weight due to networks and streamers renewing the popular limited series and turning them into plain old series.

We all know that laughter is said to prolong life, but what should we do when these days’ comedy titles are not as hilarious as they were before? Luckily for us, Reddit recalled some of the most unforgettable comedy gold movies to have a great chill with.
Here are 6 Reddit-approved comedies that will make you laugh to tears.
1. Tropic Thunder (2008)
First comes an action comedy that parodies the tropes of war films, as well as Hollywood movie production as a whole. Its plot revolves around a group of actors making a Vietnam War movie when they’re caught off guard by the death of their director.
2. What We Do in the Shadows (2014)
This mockumentary is probably the most famous vampire movie after Twilight. Taika Waititi’s iconic comedy focuses on the ridiculous exploits of several vampires who live together in a dark apartament, and it won’t leave you indifferent to their awkward adventures.

Eddie Murphy is feeling the heat in the first full trailer for Netflix’s forthcoming action-comedy sequel Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F.
The feature from director Mark Molloy is set to launch July 3 on the streaming service. Murphy leads a cast that also includes Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Taylour Paige, Judge Reinhold, John Ashton, Paul Reiser, Bronson Pinchot and Kevin Bacon.
Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F sees the star reprising his role as detective Axel Foley, who aims to save the life of his daughter (Paige) by teaming up with new partner (Gordon-Levitt) and familiar faces Billy Rosewood (Reinhold) and John Taggart (Ashton) to foil a conspiracy.
Murphy originated his character in the Martin Brest-helmed 1984 smash Beverly Hills Cop, which was written by Danilo Bach and Daniel Petrie Jr. After becoming the year’s highest-grossing film, it was followed by two sequels, the latest of which hit theaters back in 1994.

Science fiction creators never cease to amaze us with their unbridled flights of fancy. Whether it's 'soft' sci-fi, which emphasizes philosophical and social issues in imaginative and futuristic settings, or 'hard' sci-fi, which focuses specifically on the scientific component of futuristic scenarios, it's always highly inventive conceits, crazy plot twists, and mind-blowing depth of thought. Luckily, Netflix is full of great shows in the sci-fi genre. Here are ten shows streaming this May whose concepts absolutely blew us away.

Paul Schrader has often landed himself in controversies with his anti-political correctness takes. There have been instances when Schrader was asked to back down from social media during his film’s release. He continues his usual controversial takes by announcing a Frank Sinatra biopic starring Kevin Spacey. Schrader had defended the actor back in 2018 at the peak of the #MeToo movement. He wants to cast him now since Spacey was cleared of the charges against him.
The Card Counter director Paul Schrader wants to cast Kevin Spacey in his Frank Sinatra biopic
Schrader’s intention to fight against Cancel Culture could cost him his movie as no studio may be willing to work on a controversial project. Even if it gets taken up by a studio, Schrader’s film still has to compete with Martin Scorsese’s biopic of the late singer and actor.

In today’s cinematic world Jonah Hill is presumably the main young comedy actor of the 21th century, with his iconic roles in such comedies, as The 40-Year-Old Virgin (2005) and Superbad (2007) and the notorious 21 Jump Street dilogy.
What if we take his comedic talent, give his character a funny companion, just like in 21 Jump Street, and let them do unbelievably crazy things in a heated setting? We’ll receive the 2016 comedy, which is also based on real-life events.
The movie’s plot revolves around two troublesome arms dealers, Efraim Diveroli (played by Hill) and David Packouz (Miles Teller), who are sent to the Middle East to supply ammunition for the Afghan National Army during the Iraq War by a U.S. Army contract.
It may sound boring, however, be sure there are lots of high-class jokes impeccably delivered through Hill’s and Teller’s performances. Their buddy chemistry is obvious,...

While Quentin Tarantino is considered to be the king of dialogue, his movies’ lines, with all their wholesomeness, clearly lack realism. However, there are movies in which onscreen conversations are really close to real ones, depicting the truth of life.
Here are 7 examples of such truthfully made movies, handpicked by Redditors.
1. Superbad (2007)
Jonah Hill and Michael Cera’s coming-of-age comedy doesn’t really mince words showing the truthful image of the American youth of different interests.
“It was exactly like how high schoolers spoke to each other in 2007,” fairly admits @dabisnit.
2. Uncut Gems (2019)
Directed by Benny and Josh Safdies, this crime thriller is very dialogue-heavy, with lots of multiple conversations happening simultaneously and fastly spoken utterances, which sounds really natural, being reminiscent of our daily communication in the big city.
3. Manchester By the Sea (2016)
“I love that there are no deep monologues. Every bit of dialogue feels real,” as voiced by Redditor @backinredd.

Opening an ambitious restaurant in L.A. is notoriously challenging. The gauntlet runs from permitting hassles and online critics to razor-thin profit margins. But Carmel, a new dining concept backed by entertainment insiders, faces a singular predicament. It debuts its inclusive, cosmopolitan ideal of Tel Aviv cuisine on Thursday, the day after a violent UCLA protest over the Gaza conflict ended in mass arrests and as the International Criminal Court is reported to be weighing warrants for senior Israeli leaders.
Carmel — named after Tel Aviv’s main century-old bazaar — was conceived a year ago by a group of hospitality veterans whose other endeavors include the kosher Nua in Beverly Hills as well as lower Manhattan’s Cleveland 19, a Mediterranean-minded lure for the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio and Jonah Hill. The restaurant’s investors include WME’s Brad Slater and Warner Music Group executive vp Aton Ben-Horin. It’s taken over...

Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross have, in less than 15 years, established themselves as the most exciting composers working in contemporary film.
Their first score was David Fincher’s masterpiece “The Social Network.” The score was a haunting, atmospheric triumph, and it won them Oscars, an even more impressive feat given the Academy’s historic anti-rock band bias. And what began as an exclusive collaboration with Fincher soon blossomed outward – they have worked with Pixar and Ken Burns, scored a prestige TV version of Alan Moore’s “Watchmen,” and an animated “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” movie. They can do it all, while remaining uniquely them.
They are unstoppable, too. This week “Challengers,” from Luca Guadagnino, is released alongside their soundtrack album. And they have a pair of scores still coming this year – for the big-budget Apple movie “The Gorge” and for Guadagnino’s “Queer,” starring Daniel Craig.

Netflix may have a huge list of everyday exciting releases, but the nostalgia for the 2000s still lives on — and the streaming’s recent top chart results are another proof of it.
This time it’s Seth Rogan’s iconic romantic comedy that, unlike many more movies alike, was actually a stunning success in every respect — and after almost 20 years since its release the film is one of Netflix’s most watched movies.
Knocked Up, a 2007 romcom starring Seth Rogan and Katherine Heigl cemented Judd Apatow’s status of a romantic comedy master after he already blew everyone away thanks to an earlier collaboration with Rogan, 2005’s The 40-Year-Old Virgin.
Knocked Up’s plot follows Ben, a binge-loving loafer with no desire for commitment, who ends up having a one-night stand with determined career builder Allison — eventually the latter finds out that she’s pregnant. Having come to a common decision to keep the child,...

Samuel L. Jackson is an iconic actor, who has been synonymous with being a charismatic on-screen persona, and captivating audiences worldwide. While the actor has immense acting range, fans love him for his outstanding use of colorful language both on and offscreen. Jackson’s delivery of profane language is outstanding, which is often neatly integrated with intense emotions. From anger to sheer disappointment, his emotional intensity deeply resonates with his viewers.

However, to everyone’s surprise, the Pulp Fiction actor is not the biggest on-screen cursor that the entertainment industry has witnessed. Surprisingly, research was conducted to find out the biggest users of obscene language, and to everyone’s surprise, Jackson was beaten in his own game by none other than Jonah Hill and Leonardo DiCaprio.

A lot goes into a good performance – from research to blocking to facial expressions and beyond. But at its core, an acting performance comes down to reading lines of dialogue on a piece of paper. Many actors do their level best to read the lines as written. Some other actors, bless them, like to get a little more creative.
Television and film are filled with fascinating line readings from actors. Whether it’s an emphasis on an unusual syllable or just an outright scream, certain performers are able to make dialogue feel particularly vibrant. As pop culture travelers ourselves, we’ve come across many interesting line readings over the years. What follows are some of our favorites. Be sure to share yours in the comments as well!

James Gandolfini’s The Sopranos is often regarded as among the best TV shows ever made. The show chronicling the life and criminal career of Tony Soprano enthralled fans with its first few seasons. For six seasons, they were stuck to their TV every week waiting for new episodes to air. Gandolfini’s influential career-defining performance as Tony Soprano won him multiple Emmys.

Despite the high reputation of the series, the series finale that featured the infamous cut-to-black sequence at the end divided fans. Additionally, Edie Falco who played Carmela Soprano teased that she and Gandolfini shot a Soprano-themed ad to help lure LeBron James to join the New York Knicks. The long-rumored footage has now made its way online and it is interesting, to say the least.

Rita Ora, the renowned British singer famous for hits like “R.I.P,” “How We Do,” and “Hot Right Now,” stands at a height of 5 feet 5 ½ inches (166.4 cm).
Rita Ora’s Actual Height Revealed
In a candid Wired interview, she humorously shared, “Well, I’d like to think I’m 5’11, but nobody believes me. I’m more like 5’7, 5’6, 5’7…Yeah, I think being tall is gorgeous.”
While she playfully exaggerates her height aspirations, Rita Ora’s actual height of 5’5 ½” is in line with the average height of a British woman.

Keanu Reeves has been a prolific movie star since the 90s and has been part of some of the most groundbreaking action films that Hollywood has seen. Films like Point Break, Speed, The Matrix, and the John Wick franchise have made him a bonafide action hero unafraid of getting his hands dirty and doing most of his stunts.

After a dramatic exit from The Daily Show late last year, at least one piece of Roy Wood Jr.’s next act is coming into focus.
Deadline reports the comedian and former Tds correspondent has joined the cast of Jonah Hill’s new movie “Outcome.” The Apple Studios dark comedy, directed and co-written by Hill, will star Keanu Reeves, Cameron Diaz, Matt Bomer, and Hill himself.
It was last October that Wood announced he was leaving The Daily Show, where he had served as a correspondent since 2015. The move came as Tds continued its long process of finding a new permanent host to replace Trevor Noah, who left in 2022.
Explaining his departure in a recent interview with fellow Daily Show alum Samantha Bee, Wood stated that he’d lost faith that there were any paths to success left for a show that didn’t have a plan amid an industry that’s in crisis.

Leonardo DiCaprio has always had a penchant for choosing challenging roles that have required the actor to give every ounce of himself physically and emotionally. From enduring freezing waters in James Cameron’s blockbuster Titanic to eating raw bison to prepare for his Oscar-winning turn in The Revenant, the celebrity has never shied away from pushing the envelope.

The “SNL” 5-Timers Club has been around since December 1990, when Tom Hanks joked in his monologue that a person’s fifth time hosting is when they receive a membership card into the club. Hanks then left the stage and joined Steve Martin, Elliott Gould and Paul Simon in an expensive-looking set with hors d’oeuvres, waiters and a doorman. The iconic club set would be seen multiple times on NBC’s late sketch comedy throughout the decades, often (but not always) when a new host is anointed as a five-timer. Members of the club are always seen wearing exclusive jackets embroidered with a “5” badge.

Just like other actors such as Melissa McCarthy and Jonah Hill, when you’re carrying a few extra pounds in Hollywood, you’re automatically lumped into comic relief roles. The sidekick to the good-looking leads, the Zach Galifianakis to Bradley Cooper in The Hangover films.

The Matrix cast and crew revolutionized movies 25 years ago with a mesmerizing story and cutting-edge technology. Directed by the Wachowskis, The Matrix became a surprise hit in 1999 and launched a franchise that extended to movies, comics, and video games.

His supporting cast in The Matrix included Carrie-Anne Moss, Laurence Fishburne, and Hugo Weaving. Together, they delivered a movie that influenced a generation of filmmaking and holds up 25 years later. The Matrix may have been a surprise then, but now it’s no wonder the cast remains active in movies and TV.
