Lilly Wachowski reimagines the studio system (Pt 1)
Notas del episodio
Kim Masters talks to Lilly Wachowski, co-creator of The Matrix movie franchise, about her new artist-owned, non-profit studio. They discuss how Lilly juggled multiple international film and TV productions while she was transitioning, why she stepped away from the business, and how she’s working to launch the studio, Anarchists United, to showcase marginalized talent. [ In part two of the interview, which will air in a few weeks, Lilly will share behind-the-scenes tales of The Matrix movies, and Bound, the first movie she co-directed with her sister Lana. ]
Plus, Masters and Matt Belloni discuss the impact of pushing the trial against the Paramount-Warner Brothers merger to March 2027. This will mean the Ellison family will have to pay a “ticking fee” for months, as well as further halt any plans to blend the companies.
