Here's whatThe Matrixwould look like with Will Smith as Neo

Two decades ago, Will Smith was coming off the back-to-back blockbustersIndependence DayandMen in Blackwhen the Wachowskis approached him to play a butt-kicking hacker hero in a little movie calledThe Matrix.

Skeptical they could pull it off, Smith went on to star inWild Wild West, which proved to be a major flop, while Keanu Reeves famously plugged in as Neo.

Now we finally have a glimpse of whatThe Matrixwould have looked like starring Smith, thanks to amashup trailerfrom YouTube user The Usual Suspect.

Incorporating footage from such films asI, RobotandI Am Legend, the video swaps Reeves for Smith with surprisingly few seams.

Watch the re-edited trailer above as you ponder whether Smith would have absolutely messed upThe Matrix, as heonce toldWired.
