While we won't be getting a brand new Matrix video game any time soon, you'll be able to feel like you are playing one. A fan-made mod for Sifu has appeared online, where players can fight as Neo from The Matrix Reloaded.

Over at Nexus Mods, a user named Halfmillz has created a skin mod that replaces the player with Mr. Anderson, otherwise known as Neo, from The Matrix Reloaded. In this mod, Neo is wearing The One's famous outfit, complete with realistic cloth physics. This particular mod replaces the male player character.

Additionally, the mod pack also reskins all enemies to look like the Matrix franchise's main antagonist, Agent Smith. There is also a shade mod that makes the game have the signature Matrix green hue, as well as a new Matrix combat sound effects mod. User KangieDanie is working on a mod that will change Sifu's UI to reflect that of the Matrix font too.

The latest entry in the movie series is The Matrix Resurrections. IGN's Amelia Emberwing said, "The Matrix Resurrections is the kind of film that will go down in cult history because it is so laughably bad."

In IGN's Sifu review, Mitchell Saltzman said, "Sifu demands a lot from you, and that’s a sword that cuts both ways. Its combat is impeccable, with incredibly smooth and impactful animation, deep fighting mechanics, and challenging enemies that really make you fight tooth and nail for every victory."

The upcoming Obi-Wan show on Disney+ will feature a rematch between Obi-Wan and Darth Vader, but the series may have end up revolving around a different conflict entirely.

THR reports that Ray Park, who played Darth Maul in The Phantom Menace, was originally set to reprise the role. The report says early versions of the story featured Darth Maul hunting down Obi-Wan and a young Luke Skywalker, before the plot was changed to avoid covering similar ground to the Mandalorian's Baby Yoda plotline.

According to THR's sources, Park was on set for preproduction and stunt training, and that there may have even been some footage shot. Ultimately, though, Maul was reportedly written out of the show in favor of Darth Vader and the Grand Inquisition.

It's worth noting that another one of THR's sources from Lucasfilm said Maul was never a part of the plan for Obi-Wan at all.

While the extent of Darth Maul's involvement isn't entirely clear, we do know that the Obi-Wan project underwent serious rewrites during production. In January 2020, the show was put on hold "indefinitely" because Lucasfilm president and Obi-Wan producer Kathleen Kennedy was unhappy with the script. Just last week, we learned Kennedy scrapped the original scripts because they were too bleak.

Originally introduced in Episode I: The Phantom Menace, Darth Maul was a memorable if underused part of the first prequel film. While that movie ended with Obi-Wan defeating (and seemingly killing) Darth Maul, the character would eventually return to the screen in The Clone Wars and Rebels television shows. In fact, Star Wars Rebels features a meeting between Maul and Obi-Wan on Tatooine, so it's possible the Obi-Wan writers decided to leave that plotline alone. Darth Maul also appears at the end of Solo, as the teased villain for a sequel that will seemingly never happen.

While there may be no Darth Maul, Obi-Wan will feature a pair of other villains. Inquisitor Reva appears in the Obi-Wan trailer, threatening Uncle Owen while presumably on the hunt for Jedi. And, of course, Hayden Christensen will return as Darth Vader. The show is set to debut on Disney Plus on May 25.

Harley Quinn's Kite Man character is getting his very own spinoff show, Screenrant reports.

The Batman villain/former fiancé to Poison Ivy appeared most recently in HBO Max's Harley Quinn animated series, voiced by Matt Olberg (Veep, Superstore), and served as more comedic relief in a sea of comic characters. Harley Quinn co-showrunner/co-developer Patrick Schumacker revealed the new spinoff at a SXSW panel focused on DC's ventures into more adult-leaning animated series.

The spinoff is a Cheers-style comedy tentatively titled "Noonan's," the bar that DC universe henchmen hang out when not busy working for big name villains, which Harley and her crew occasionally visit to hire muscle or kick back a few cold ones.

"[Kite Man] tries to run the bar by himself but it doesn't turn out so easy," Schumacker said. "We have Harley and Ivy appear in the first episode, but after that we have different goons and villains appearing every episode like Lex Luthor and Bane. It will be kind of like 'Cheers' for supervillains."

It'll be interesting to see just how much Harley Quinn and Ivy factor into Kite Man's spinoff, considering season two of Harley Quinn ended with Ivy and Kite Man finally breaking off their engagement, and Harley making off with the girl of her dreams.

Harley Quinn season 3 premieres sometime later this year, and promises to follow on season 2's romantic antics as well as the new comic line's development of Ivy and Harley's relationship. You can check out every upcoming DC series and movie here.

The Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and original Spider-Man trilogy director Sam Raimi would love to work on a Batman film.

Speaking to Empire, he said: "I’ve always loved Batman. If I ever saw the Bat-signal up in the air, I’d come running."

Though he's not dabbled in DC before and officially enters the Marvel Cinematic Universe this May, Raimi said Batman is one of his favorite superheroes.

Raimi's already fulfilled his other superhero dreams, noting that Spider-Man and Doctor Strange were among his other favorites, which is why Raimi included a reference to Strange in Spider-Man 2 years before the MCU took over the world.

It would be some time before DC looks for a new Caped Crusader director, of course, as Matt Reeves' The Batman has proved incredibly successful so far. It will almost definitely get a sequel, not to mention The Penguin and haunted house style Arkham spin-off shows.

Reeves wants the potential sequel to feature Mr. Freeze, saying he'd love to put the crazy character into a dark and down-to-earth story. The Batman himself, however, Robert Pattinson, wants to explore the Court of Owls arc.

In our 10/10 review, IGN said "Matt Reeves’ violent, thrilling, darkly beautiful take on The Batman more than justifies its place in the franchise’s canon."
