The roster for The Matrix 4 film continues to grow with a familiar face from Sense8. Via Vital Thrills, Max Riemelt has confirmed his involvement with the upcoming Matrix sequel through a cryptic post on his Instagram account. He’s the second cast member from Sense8 to join the cast, as Toby Onwumere signed on last year.
The Instagram image is below, which features a very familiar looking image from the franchise.
Riemelt previously worked with the film’s director, Lana Wachowski, on Sense8 for two seasons between 2015 and 2017 before Netflix ultimately decided to cancel it. However, fans successfully lobbied Netflix for a proper finale; which arrived in mid-2018.
