The Wachowski siblings are most definitely going to bless their fans with a fourth 'Matrix' movie, revealed 'John Wick 3' director Chad Stahelski.

In an interview with Yahoo Movies UK, Stahelski said: "I’m super happy that the Wachowskis are not just doing a Matrix, but they’re expanding what we all loved. And if it’s anywhere near the level of what they’ve already done, it wouldn’t take more than a call to go, ‘Hey, we want you to be a stunt guy’ and I would probably go and get hit by a car."

Keanu Reeves and Chad Stahelski attend the "John Wick: Chapter 3" special screening at The Ham Yard Hotel on May 03, 2019 in London, England.

The director has previously worked with the Wachowskis on the original Matrix trilogy, where he was the stunt double for lead Keanu Reeves.

Speaking about the fourth movie, he shared that he wasn't sure of the “overall” when it came to the designated director for the production. “I’m not sure if Lana (Wachowski) is,” he said.

However, he did confirm that both she and her sister Lilly were part of the upcoming movie which is yet unannounced.

"If they wanted help, I would absolutely put down whatever I was doing to help them," he said about the Wachowski siblings' involvement in a prospective fourth 'Matrix' film.

But rumors about a new 'Matrix' film are nothing new, they go as far back as the year 2011. In 2017, The Hollywood Reporter had also posted a report that claimed Warner Bros. was rebooting the entire franchise, but at the time, Reeves reportedly had no information on that front. 

Meanwhile, Reeves has been busy with the upcoming installment of the John Wick saga titled 'John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum' which releases on May 17 and stars Halle Berry.
