Without Keanu Reeves and Cary-Anne Moss: Who Really Should Have Starred in The Matrix

One can hardly imagine popular films with a different cast, and yet many cult productions should have been completely different!

Keanu Reeves and Cary-Anne Moss did a great job with their roles in The Matrix. But the two got them almost by accident. The fact is that the stars who were originally offered the job refused to shoot.

Who was it?

You will be surprised, but the role of Neo was to be played by none other than Brad Pitt! The screenplay was offered to him, but Pitt himself refused to participate. The actor noted that he never thought the role was right for him.

But Trinity was supposed to be played by Madonna herself. But the singer also refused, although she later admitted that, unlike Pitt, she somewhat regretted missing out on such an experience. Yet The Matrix became a cult film that completely changed the film industry.
