Wachowski Brothers Update

the_wachowski_brothers_slice.jpg

As most of you know, I am a huge Wachowski Brothers (The Matrix, Bound, Speed Racer) fan.  Whenever I do an interview with anyone who knows the brothers, I always try to find out what they’re up to as they don’t do any press.  If you follow the brothers, you know they produced Ninja Assassin and the film arrives next week.  But beyond Assassin, they have nothing scheduled to be released and there are no rumors about what they might be working on.

But at today’s press junket for Ninja Assassin, I finally got someone to tell me the brothers are at least working! While I didn’t find out what the projects are (believe me I tried), this is the first time anyone has said anything regarding their future projects.  Believe me, I look for news on the Brothers constantly.

According to screenwriter J. Michael Straczynski, “they have a number of things in development.  Some of them are large projects and some of them are smaller projects.  I can’t imagine Larry and Andy never working ever again.  The brothers are always developing something.” While I know this is almost a non-story, if you’re a fan of the Wachowskis, I figured the news was worth sharing.  If anyone knows what they are working on, please email me!

  1. It really is unfair how big a beating they took for Speed Racer, which for my money is one of the best films of the decade. No kidding. I’ve seen it half a dozen times and it just keeps getting better.

  5. LOL, your more fanatical than me Steve. Usually when I’m a fan of a directors work, I’ll love all of their stuff, even comic books, just cause I know they put a lot of effort to making their imagination real… and it takes a lot of Fuckin’ work. So I’m glad their crackin’ away at somethings. Can’t wait for the next comic book movie, but then again they could do just about anything. But their one of the real pioneers of comic movies, or at least how comic movies should be. I just want to be a part of their crew when they do Lucifer the movie.

  9. Speed Racer wasn’t as awful as people say but it had no idea what kind of film it wanted to be. Part of it was great action, part of it was coming of age, and the part that fucked it over was the awful sections where it wanted to be an uninspired, and unfunny, children’s movie. If they picked a tone it could have been much better. Also Matthew Fox rules.

  11. Speed Racer is a great film! The film is amazingly thought out and has such good execution. Definitely one of my favorite films of all time! Can’t wait for more from the Wachowski Brothers!

  15. If you have the ear of the Wachowski bothers, please let them know that I loved Speed Racer the movie more than any movie ever made. So much so that I would like to offer a chance to make another movie when my company takes off.

    I would be willing to front the money for the project if my company makes enough to pay for it.

    It was that good, it inspires me to this day as Speed Racer inspired me to become an designer today.

    I currently design electric cars and want to see the Speed Racer legacy to grow, folks need movies like this to push them. To new highs to overcome the lows! I’m watching right now!

  17. Umm…they actually made something that a lot of people like and you're calling it utter sh*t (very classy by the way) – what have you produced?
