Matrix Revolutions, the third and final instalment of the Matrix trilogy, will be launched simultaneously in major cities around the world. So when fans head for the premiere at 10pm on November 5 in Hong Kong cinemas, the movie will also be hitting the big screens in Los Angeles at 6am, New York at 9am and London at 2pm.
The second part, Matrix Reloaded, has earned more than US$734 million worldwide - making it the highest grossing film this year and the highest grossing R-rated film in history. It is also the first film to take more than US$100 million at the box office in a single weekend.
It is not known if there will be a preview or a launch event in Hong Kong. For the Reloaded premiere, there was an overload of fans dressed as Agent Smith - just like in the movie.
