Wake up, Will… the Matrix has you… Back in the late 1990s, theIndependence DayandBad Boysstar famously passed on playing Neo inthe eventual classicThe Matrix.
Well, that what if is now a reality.
Its a very fun watch.

Smiths new video for Beautiful Scars is directed by hisBad Boyscollaborators Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah.
But, its catchy and the music video is pretty incredible.
I especially love the changes in video quality to make it look like its behind-the-scenes footage from the 1990s.
As for that newMatrixmovie, well, we dont know whats happening.
Lana Wachowksi is on board as executive producer.
So, wed imagine, thatll happen in the future.
For now though, we have Will Smiths tribute and its certainly fun.
Oh and dont forgetThe Matrix Resurrectionswas super freaking awesome too.
