How to Watch The Matrix Movies in Order?

By Gabriela Vatu / April 6, 2021

Stepping into the Matrix world is a weird but rewarding experience as you dive into a unique universe created by The Wachowskis. 

The Matrix franchise started more than two decades ago, and it doesn't just feature movies but also animated shorts and video games. For our purpose, we'll be focusing on the first two types of content only. 

Even better, the franchise is not nearly done. The main cast has returned, and we're getting a fourth film in December 2021, but the film is getting directed only by one of the Wachowskis, namely Lana, as Lilly is busy with producing the TV show Work in Progress. 

Who Plays in The Matrix?

As far as the cast goes, The Matrix features some big names - Keanu Reeves, Carrie-Ann Moss, Laurence Fishburne, Jada Pinkett Smith, Hugo Weaving, Monica Bellucci, and more.

Where to Stream The Matrix 

Telling you how to watch The Matrix may be great, but we're sure you'd also like to know where you can actually stream the content, so let's dive into this.
