Laurence’s Only involvement with Matrix

Laurence’s only involvement with the Matrix franchise now is voiceovers of Morpheus for The Animatrix: Program 00 – World Record (2003), which includes a deleted scene where Laurence speaks to Neo, and Trinity in “Enter the Matrix” (2004) in two scenes with Laurence speaking: one downloaded by players into their game console memory card before playing it, “The Duel” level; other downloadable onto PC hard drive since this type of game requires more than DVD player storage capacity.”

He has also voiced Morpheus for the PC game Enter The Matrix, released in 2004.

In Laurence’s newest movie project, he plays a retired boxer-turned-actor who takes on one last role as an actor before settling into retirement: “The Fighter” (2010).
