The Matrix 4 Trailer Song Explains Resurrections Main Story

The first trailer for The Matrix Resurrections includes the classic rock song “White Rabbit” by Jefferson Airplane, but there’s a bigger meaning behind it than casual viewers may realize. The Wachowskis created a mesmerizing and groundbreaking action and science fiction franchise with The Matrix in the 1990s and 2000s, and now Lana Wachowski has returned to the series to deliver another highly-anticipated installment. After all, the series revolutionized the genre in more ways than one and proved that big bets can pay off in glorious ways.

Thing is, nothing is accidental in the universe of The Matrix. All the CGI, martial arts, and actions set pieces were exciting to see, but they masked the real allegorical points the Wachowskis were trying to make. All that is very much evident in The Matrix Resurrections, which appears to pick up years later and sees Neo back in the Matrix alongside Trinity, though neither of them remember each other at first. And for Neo – or Thomas Anderson – the world isn’t what it seems, and he’s starting to break out of his mental prison.

The entire Matrix Resurrections trailer is set to the song “White Rabbit,” which itself is a big clue towards the overarching story. On its own, the term ‘white rabbit’ – first, a character from the Alice in Wonderland story – refers to curiosity, and in the context of The Matrix Resurrections trailer, it points to Thomas’ attempts to understand his dreams and escape his false reality. By taking the red pill, he falls down the proverbial rabbit hole and achieves true discovery.

Even the “White Rabbit” lyrics accurately explain what’s happening in the trailer. Beginning with the scene after Neo and Trinity meet again, Thomas takes one of his prescribed blue pills; that’s when the lyrics start with “One pill makes you larger / One pill makes you small.” Then in the following scenes, as Thomas observes his surroundings and ultimately dumps out all of his blue pills, the song goes, “And the ones that mother gives you / Don’t do anything at all.” In the franchise’s mythology, the blue pills keep the people inside the Matrix, while the red pills open their minds to the real world.

A few shots later, the song continues, “And if you go chasing rabbits,” just as Neo comes into contact with Jessica Henwick’s character, a user inside the Matrix sporting a rabbit tattoo, and someone who’s willing to show him the truth of his reality. Towards the end of the trailer, as Henwick and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II’s characters begin fighting the cops and Agents, even bending the physics of the Matrix to dodge bullets and perform acrobatic stunts, “White Rabbit” indicates a break from realism; “When logic and proportion / Have fallen sloppy dead.” It all culminates with “Feed your head” as the trailer ends, once again indicating the need for truth and education – the core tenets of The Matrix Resurrections as well as the franchise.
