Smith Has No Matrix Regrets

  • 28 February 2005

[Will Smith](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/will-smith) harbours no regrets over his decision to turn down the role of NEO in [The Matrix](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/the-matrix) trilogy - because [Keanu Reeves](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/keanu-reeves) was "born" to play the part.

The [Independence Day](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/independence-day) heart-throb is relieved when he watches Reeves starring in the sci-fi movies, because he fears he would not have done the role justice.

The 36-year-old says, "That's the role Keanu was born to play. When I watch the movie and I see the choices he made, there are a hundred occasions when I think, 'I would have messed that up.'"
