Mouse the Hacker played by Matt
Doran This is the film's geek who enjoys the inner working of the Matrix. He even designs his own female program known as the girl in red whom he shows off to Neo with much pride. Other than a Saved by the Bell, Screech like appearance this character just serves as a means to include a stereotypical nerd in the movie. |

Tank played by Marcus Chong Tank and his brother are the only two humans who serve on Morpheus' ship that are natural born humans. Tank usually stays behind and maintains the network setup when others from his crew enter the Matrix on missions. When Cypher betrays Morpheus, Tank kills him by surprise. |

Agents of the Matrix The agents of the Matrix are superpowerful program variables inside the Matrix that are used to maintain order. Any human being connected to the Matrix can potentially become an agent if such is needed. Agents are able to stretch the limits of the Matrix construct in ways that human's can't until Neo. Agents can dodge bullets, do superhuman jumps, and coordinate attacks with others who dwell in the Matrix as Cops or Security. The agent shown most in the movie is "Mr. Smith" who makes the simple phrase "Mr. Anderson" a Hollywood classic. |

Cypher played by Joe Pantoliano This is one of the crew members of Morpheus' ship. Over time he becomes upset with his fate in life. Cypher strikes a bargain with agents of the Matrix in which he will be given a new identity as Mr. Reagon a person of importance and money. Cypher is a believer in ignorance being bliss and can't wait until he can enjoy all the foods he has been denied while serving with Morpheus. Cypher agrees to give up Morpheus in exchange for this new life. |

The Matrix Itself The Matrix is a computer software program that is used to entertain the minds of humans that are utilized as batteries. While humans do not move or truly live apart from their chambers which feed them and harness their electrical energies the Matrix makes them believe they do. The Matrix employees "Agents" or superpowerful programs to hunt down any that threaten the validity of the Matrix. People who are not a part of the Matrix can hack in and influence everyone else who is. These hackers think that one day they may find "the One" who can control the Matrix and free everyone who is enslaved by its false sensations. |

Switch played by Belinda McClory Switch has a really minor role in the film. She basically is just another female character other than Trinity.
