As many people know, there are three versions of The Matrix available on home video. There is the 1999 version, the 2008 version and the 2018 version. All of these have drastically different colors. But I would like to know which version is the closest to the theatrical release and what the theatrical version even looked like. Any help would be appreciated.

I’ve made a rough comparison of 2 of my PAL DVDs here, the frames aren’t perfectly matched but you can see a difference. I think the box-set version is from 2004.

Why not a scan of a 35mm print in 4K?

The new restoration looks beautiful and got rid of the extreme green tint they added in 2008 to match the other two movies. I have no idea how accurate the colors are though.
