Lambert Wilson to return as Merovingian in The Matrix 4?

It is rumoured that Lambert Wilson will join the sets of The Matrix 4 as Merovingian, the old program inside Matrix, who along with his wife Persephone (Monica Bellucci), traffics information and provides a safe place for ‘Xiles’. 

According to reports, Lambert Wilson is in talks with the makers of The Matrix 4. But, it also said that the French actor’s schedule is busy and might clash with the production of the upcoming film. 

Till now, Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss are confirmed to return as Neo and Trinity, respectively. Jada Pinkett Smith is also returning as Niobe in the fourth instalment of the franchise.

The sci-fi film also has many other actors, who are new to the franchise, including Neil Patrick Harris, Toby Onwumere, and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II. 

The Matrix franchise is about a dystopian future where self-aware Machines take control of the world, breed humans, and trap them in an illusion called The Matrix, to derive thermal energy for their survival. A section of free people fight against the Machines for the liberation of humankind.

The first three parts of the franchise were directed by the Wachowski sisters  — Lana Wachowski and Lilly Wachowski. However, only Lana Wachowski, who recently made the Netflix series Sense 8, will be returning to direct the fourth Matrix film.
