Joey Pants

I may be late to the party, but check out the cast list for The Matrix Reloaded from Hollywood.com here. I read that the cast includes Joe Pantoliano as Cypher. I've heard rumors that Cypher has been cloned and returns for the remainder of the trilogy, or, at least, Reloaded. Is this common knowledge and am I the last one to figure this out?

UPDATE-
I've read numerous places that say Cypher is NOT returning for Reloaded, but they all seem a little too similar i.e. all the reports are almost verbatim from a press sheet. Could Warner Bros., and distributors Disney and Village Roadshow be trying to surprise us or is the Hollywood.com list just a typo? A check of Joe Pantoliano's bio on Hollywood.com also shows Matrix Reloaded on his list of film credits, however the Internet Movie Data Base listing for Reloaded is void of Mr. Pants. I also found a basic list of cast and crew from an obscure Hollywood site showing Pantoliano credited right next to Jada Pinkett Smith.

I guess we'll see the truth in about 30 days...

This is great news. If Joey Pants can’t be killed in the Matrix, then maybe Ralph Cifaretto’s reanimated corpse will return during season five of The Sopranos looking for a little payback. He’s so resilient.
