A digitally remastered version of The Matrix is set to be screened in a Kent cinema to mark the 20th anniversary of its release.
The sci-fi action film starring Keanu Reeves has become a cult classic since its release in 1999.
Directed by The Wachowskis, it is a cyber adventure set in a dystopian future of a world ruled by machines.
The 4K remastered version will be screened at Showcase Cinema de Lux at Bluewater later this month.
Known as the film that shook the foundations of the film industry and set cinematic trends for years, The Matrix won four Oscars including Best Film Editing and Best Effects.
James Dobbin, director of event cinema for Showcase Cinemas, said: “The Matrix has transformed the cinematic industry and we are delighted to screen this in stunning 4K for audiences to enjoy once again on the big screen.”
Thomas A. Anderson (Keanu Reeves) is a man living two lives - by day a computer programmer, and by night a computer hacker known as Neo.
The Matrix will be shown at Bluewater on Sunday, July 14 at 4.30pm and on Monday, July 15 at 7.30pm.
