"Lana was like, 'Hmmm, take off your socks. I think you’re gonna be a no-socks guy. I've just decided this guy is a no-socks guy'"

Vulture interviewed Jonathan Groff about Matrix Resurrections:

At the beginning of the movie, when you’re just playing Thomas Anderson’s business partner, you get to be this slimey tech guy, which I realized was sort of the worst possible future for Patrick from Looking.

I didn’t think of that, but like if things didn’t work out and he went to the dark side, he would maybe be that way, yes. That’s funny, because when I went to San Francisco to meet Lana, we met at the Fairmont Hotel, and there was a poster of Looking there with my face on it, because we shot the show there. She didn’t acknowledge the poster specifically, but we did talk about how much San Francisco meant to both of us.

"The Matrix Recollections: Talking Bullet Time With Big Cop"

BMD:
First I say “Freeze, police!” – there was a bit of a contest over who was going to say the lines

...

We did this about eight times and the first time was hysterical. The rig was a large pneumatic ram that develops about two and a half tonnes of pressure, running around a pulley up near the ceiling directly to my harness: if it’s at the same height you are it actually pulls you into the ground, and they didn’t want that. Brian Ellison was about eight feet behind me with his own ram, and the idea was that my ram would be activated, I’d fly back and hit him, then his ram would be activated and we’d both fly back together into the wall. In that first take, on “Action!” Brian shoots back onto the wall and a split-second later I coming flying back and smack into him. I was fine, but Brian collapsed and couldn’t breathe. We got to him and pulled his shirt open to see how his ribs were, only to find the cross he was wearing had shattered, leaving a great big imprint on his chest!

...

[Keanu] was around all the time! He’s a big motorcycle fan and I came to the studio one day on my bike, a Honda ST1100, and he looked at it and went “Wow, what’s this?” so I asked if he wanted a ride: soon he was riding it around the studio! I believe at the end of the show he bought each head of department a Harley as a gift.

Interview with Keanu Reeves’s stunt double in The Matrix, who became the director of the John Wick movies

Vulture:
How did you first get the job for The Matrix?

Way back in 1996, the Wachowskis and Yuen Woo-Ping, the fight choreographer, were doing a casting search in Australia, China, Canada, and the U.S. to find a martial-arts stunt double for Keanu. At the time, martial arts weren’t that big in big-budget features. It was considered more of a low-budget, chop-socky kind of thing. Most of the fights at the time were single-gun battle stuff, or Arnold Schwarzenegger pummeling you to death with his hands. It was a very different action-design fight era. I was working on a TV show called Pretender at the time. And I had to do a car hit in the morning. So I got hit by a car, cracked my head open, and managed to make an 11 a.m. audition in Burbank from Pasadena. I was still bleeding when I got there. First, they wanted to know if I was homeless — I still had blood on my T-shirt

...

I had to do a thing where I cartwheel over to an M16 rifle, pick it up with one hand, and then Keanu shoots and goes into the fight or whatever. I remember the setup was a day turnover, so you get one take, and it takes a day to reset, and then you do the second take. I had barely met anybody on set at this point. I’m in the getup, and I’m getting ready to go, and I remember producer Joel Silver walking over to me — I had never met the man before in my life — looking me right in the eye and saying, “Don’t fuck this up.” Basically, don’t miss. And he gave me that little stare. He’s a very intense person. And I was like, Okay. Don’t miss gun. They said there’d be a lot of debris, so I just practiced doing the flip with my eyes closed. And I swear to you, as soon as they yelled action, the first squib went off, and I couldn’t see shit. I just threw myself in there and magically found the gun and grabbed it. I was only 25 and I was like, Don’t miss gun. Don’t miss gun. Don’t miss gun.
