Radewart Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 Sounds interesting, who knows if he'll actually do it... http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/blogs/heat-vision/wachowskis-warner-bros-aim-hood-57312 Andy and Lana (formerly Larry) Wachowski are returning to the Warner Bros. fold with Hood, a modern, urban take on the Robin Hood myth. The Wachowskis wrote the script and will direct the tale, which in keeping with the modus operendi of the duo, is shrouded in secrecy. The pair are already reaching out to actors, with insiders saying Will Smith as one of those who they reached out to. While a take on Robin Hood may not be much to go on, knowing the proclivities of the duo, it will undoubtedly have a brand of visual take and their comic book-fused pop art sensitivities. The Wachowskis have been working on their Iraqi war movie, CN-9, told from the point of view of archeologists piecing together events from the U.S. occupation of Iraq using found footage and includes two male soldiers falling in love and a plot to assassinate George W. Bush. The hot button project has been slow to find financing, although the pair have shot some talking-head sequences with Arianna Huffington, Salman Rushdie, Jesse Ventura and Cornel West. Warners has been the home to the Wachowskis ever since 1999’s The Matrix. The relationship went through a challenge with 2008’s flop Speed Racer but the pair did give the studio first-crack at CN-9. Hood clearly shows there are no hard feelings. The Wachowskis are repped by WME and Circle of Confusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da Brakes Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 Will may take this! He already turned them down once with The Matrix....we all know how that turned out. I'd like to here a bit more about the plot. Could be interesting... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ale Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 (edited) Keanu spoke about the need to encourage writers to continue to focus on working on new ideas and that a good script was worth its weight in gold. For example he said the Wachowski's had just sold the most expensive script in history to Warner Brothers. a modern futuristic take on the legend of "Robin Hood". Says he understands WB paid $5 million for the rights and that from what the Wachowski's have told him, it will be an action movie that would have the same impact visually and technically that Terminator 2 had. Confirmed that Will Smith has agreed to headline the picture.Source: http://www.aintitcool.com/node/48199 Edited January 24, 2011 by Ale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
