Warner Bros sued over ‘abysmal’ Matrix Resurrections release
The Guardian says Warner Bros is being sued by co-financiers Village Roadshow over the hybrid release of the sci-fi sequel The Matrix Resurrections.
As with all of Warner’s 2021 titles, the fourth Matrix film was released on the big screen and the company’s streaming service, HBO Max, as a response to the pandemic. A complaint put forward by Village Roadshow claims that the decision destroyed any box office chances in December.
The Matrix Resurrections, which reunited stars Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss, made just $37m in the US and has just crossed $153m worldwide. The budget is believed to be around $190m. The Matrix Reloaded, the highest-performing of the franchise, made more than $740m in 2003.
