'Matrix' co-creator writes thriller with all-trans cast, but one problem keeps getting in 'her' way
The Blaze ^ | 8-22-26 | BlazeTV Staff

Hollywood has spent years peppering films and shows with transgender cast members, but Lilly Wachowski — who identifies as transgender — isn’t reaping the benefits.

"The Matrix" co-creator, formerly known as Andy Wachowski, is now struggling to find financing for "The Hunted," a $10 million dystopian political thriller featuring an entirely transgender cast.

“Well, if you’re excited for a brand-new all-trans movie, I’ve got terrible news for you,” BlazeTV host Stu Burguiere jokes.

“Of course, these are the Wachowski brothers who made 'The Matrix' movies and now they’re called, in the article, the Wachowski sisters,” he explains.

When Merv Griffin had a night TV talk show his staff did not prep him at all on the guests one night. They were in the reboot of the Wizard of OZ as “The Wiz” on Broadway.

Suddenly told this was to be an all black remake of the classic he blurted out angrily: “No. No. You can’t do that. It will ruin the memory of that great movie. Somebody has to stop this.” He settled down after the commercials.

Might explain why he became The Elevator Killer....

Reminds me of what the tanker captains are singing as they are guided through Hormuz ("The Muz"):

"Diesel down, diesel down the road..."

If you’re watching make-believe movie and they use make-believe men and make-believe women in the roles, what exactly is the point? Just obnoxious and pointless virtue signaling, I guess.

10 million budget...Wachowski is worth 50-100 million from the matrix films...he can bankroll the film himself...I guess he doesn’t believe in it either.

One Matrix movie (as seen on TV) was enough for me.

I almost gave credit where it was not due. Chat to the rescue. Before the Matrix, Total Recall featured a red pill to return the protagonist to reality.

Earlier Charles Manson:
‘In a 1988 Geraldo Rivera interview, Charles Manson used “red pills” metaphorically to describe society revealing forbidden knowledge.’

I haven’t been to see a movie in a theater in probably twelve years. Anytime the movie gets to some gratuitous character who is obviously there for political correctness, I turn it off. At the cost of seeing a movie in a theater, I won’t chance it. At the top of my peeve list, 125-pound Mary Sue characters who can cold cock a 250-pound bruiser, race or sex swapped characters, gay characters or actions that are just thrown in, and anti-conservative dialog that’s just dropped in for no reason. Another biggie is the dystopian drama with dialog voice over saying something like, “Two hundred and fifty years ago Republicans destroyed the environment, forcing the remaining good people to immigrate to mars.”

It’s okay to hunt down trannies? Someone should’ve said something sooner.

Trans people make up about 1/2% of the total population.

Why are we always talking about them? I don’t wish anyone ill, but I also don’t waste a lot of energy worrying about stuff that won’t affect me.

It’s the same people that want you to believe that Black Americans are responsible for just about everything good that has happened in the US. The statistics just don’t support it.

Jewish people make up approximately 0.2% of the global population.

It is always about them too, and worse they bankroll the trannys and democrats.
