Agent Smith (later simply Smith) is a fictional character and the main antagonist of The Matrix franchise. The character was primarily portrayed by Hugo Weaving in the first trilogy of films and voiced by Christopher Corey Smith in The Matrix: Path of Neo (2005), with Ian Bliss and Gideon Emery playing his human form, Bane, in the films and Path of Neo respectively. He also makes a cameo in the anime film The Animatrix (2003), voiced by Matt McKenzie. Jonathan Groff and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II portray Smith in The Matrix Resurrections (2021), the latter playing Morpheus in a dual role.[1]

In 2008, Agent Smith was selected by Empire as the 84th Greatest Movie Character of All Time.[2] In 2013, Weaving reprised the role for a General Electric advertisement.[3] He is considered to be the archenemy of Neo, the main protagonist of the story.
