It won't be much longer when the first of two sequels to "The Matrix" is released in just a couple weeks. It's not taking long, however, for two of actors behind the intriguing "twins" to talk about what it was like playing part of the Matrix upgrades in "The Matrix: Reloaded."

"We're a rogue program," said Adrian Rayment, who joins his brother Neil in the film. "We've been given the opportunity ... I mean, most out-of-date programs within the Matrix go back to the mainframe and get recycled, but somehow or another, and which you'll find out, we've actually managed to skip that process and are actually roaming of our own free will within the Matrix system. And doing out bidding."

Also sharing some tidbits about the movie is Monica Bellucci, who played Persephone.

"It's like she's a vampire," Bellucci recently told Premiere magazine. "She doesn't have feelings anymore because she comes from an old Matrix, but as soon as she touches you, she feels everything you have inside. That's why she's very dangerous. It's impossible to lie to her ebcause as soon as she touches you, she knows exactly what you feel."

And what's star interviews without talking to the star? You know ... the guy who plays Neo?

"There's a scene where (Persephone) asks of (Neo) something very personal," said Keanu Reeves. "I don't want to give anything away, but she has a desire to experience a feeling she hasn't had, which involves the aspect of love or affection."
