Who Played Lexy In The Fourth Matrix Film?
After first appearing in the ambitious Netflix series about eight strangers known as sensates who discover they’re mentally and emotionally linked, she reunited with creator and director Lana Wachowski to play a Mnemosyne crew member named Lexy in the fourth Matrix film alongside several of her former co-stars, including Brian J. Smith, Freema Agyeman, Max Riemelt, Max Mauff, Michael X. Sommers, Purab Kohli and Toby Onwumere, as well as many others who worked on the series both in front of and behind the camera. “That’s one of the most important things that I love is we got to come together as a family because it wasn’t just onscreen. As much fun it is to see Smith, Onwumere and Sommers officially join the franchise in supporting roles as Berg, Sequoia and Skroce, respectively, they explain to ET how the Sense8 reunion runs deeper than bringing former stars and members of the creative team back together to work on the fourth film.
The Matrix! “We kind of joke with each other that Sense8 is the party that never ends, so doing The Matrix together felt like we were just picking up right where we left off, even though we had to figure out how we fit in. “I think Lana knew this was going to be a uniquely challenging experience, especially going into The Matrix without Lilly [Wachowski], so she wanted to be surrounded by people she knew had her back.” he continues.
Warner Bros. Pictures “Even Keanu would come up to us in the early days, when we were just rehearsing, and he’d be like, ‘So, yeah, do you guys have any advice? He’s incredibly curious and kind and fearless and really wanted to vibe with Lana’s groove.” Adding to that, Onwumere remembers Reeves “would even ask us about filming Sense8… Since many of the crew and cast were from Sense8, Lana is able to work with a sort of shorthand that is conducive to her greater vision.”
Which is where she sort of moves the operator around as the scene unfolds in front of her, having the actors jump around to different moments in the scene or adding lines or whispering notes.” And when it comes to one specific moment in latest Matrix that may have been directly inspired by Sense8, Smith points out that its finale, when Neo and Trinity jump off the top of a skyscraper that is over 40 stories high, was similar to a scene cut from the series. “One other interesting thing is we had prepped for a stunt in season 2 involving all of the sensates jumping off a cliff, but the scene ended up not being filmed.
Warner Bros. Pictures Looking back on the time the cast had on Sense8 (“It was just such an extreme experience in our lives, in the best way, so the bonds are intense and not the norm,” Smith says), it’s hard not to see why they all were clamoring to reunite with Wachowski. Additionally, they were all fans of The Matrix prior to joining Sense8, even if the director didn’t always divulge too much about her experience making those first three films. I sincerely believe that if the world’s kindest and best fans hadn’t demanded the Sense8 final episode and made it happen that The Matrix wouldn’t have happened.
Acknowledging the lasting legacy of the show and its diehard fans, Smith says “it’s something to be grateful for because it is so rare.” “It rarely happens in this industry, where someone is making decisions from their heart and not from the movie-making-machine algorithm, and Lana is really raging against that machine in this film,” he continues. “We were just amazed and grateful that we got to get the band back together for one last party,” Smith adds.
