Neo (born as Thomas A. Anderson, also known as The One, an anagram for Neo) is a fictional character and the main protagonist in the science fiction action film The Matrix.
Neo was portrayed as a cybercriminal and computer programmer by Keanu Reeves in The Matrix Trilogy, as well as having a cameo in The Animatrix short film Kid's Story. Andrew Bowen provided Neo's voice in The Matrix: Path of Neo. In 2008, Neo was selected by Empire magazine as the 68th Greatest Movie Character of All Time.[1]
Neo is also an anagram of "one", a reference to his destiny of being The One who would bring peace.[2] There are claims that a nightclub in Chicago inspired the name of the character in The Matrix.[3][4]
