Keanu Reeves' Neo is hit with déjà vu in new 'Matrix Resurrections' trailer

A new trailer for Warner Bros.' The Matrix Resurrections brings Neo (Keanu Reeves) back trapped in a dull life within the Matrix's false reality once again, but as the trailer shows, that doesn't look like it'll last long. The fourth film in the Matrix series brings back director Lana Wachowski and original cast members Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss as Trinity. Morpheus is back, but he's played by Yahya Abdul-Mateen II instead of Laurence Fishburne. Jessica Henwick and Jonathan Groff join the cast. 

We see some nods to iconic scenes in the original trilogy and the return of Neo and Trinity's love story. The Matrix Resurrections will debut in theatres on December 22. Warner Bros. Canada will be holding a premiere in Toronto on December 16. It recently concluded a contest for it.

Girls Who Code partners with Doja Cat to release a codable music video

Girls Who Code, a nonprofit organization that aims to get more women interested in computer science, has released its "first ever" codable music video with the help of Doja Cat. They transformed her new music video for Woman into this interactive experience. You can try it out yourself at Dojacode.com. It explores three different programming languages, including CSS, Javascript, and Python.

The video plays like Doja Cat's original music video, but you get to make decisions throughout. You can do things like changing the colour of her nails using CSS. At the end of it, you get snapshots of how each area looked after you're done "coding" it. Of course, you can download and share these snapshots on social media.

Google spokesperson Ivy Hunt informed The Verge that it will start rolling out "in the coming months." It isn't ideal, we admit, but it is out of our hands. Here is the heads up that you'll have to wait a bit more to separate your watchlists on the platform.
