After the high-profile failure of last summer’s Speed Racer (following luke-warm on the heels of V For Vendetta and two disappointing Matrix sequels), some in Hollywood are wondering if the Wachowski Brothers are still 100% certified A-list players...but the more interesting question is whether the Wachowskis are still, in fact, brothers.

The cross-dressing ways of Larry Wachowski have been common tabloid knowledge since at least 2003, but according to the sometimes accurate Wikipedia, rumors that Andy Wachowski now has a sister named Lana are false.

“They just don’t do interviews, so people make things up,” Joel Silver apparently claimed in a 2007 interview denying persistent rumors of Larry’s gender-swappage. And yet, just yesterday, the famously unimpeachable Perez Hilton posted the following frumpy photo of alleged lady Lana Wachowski, speculating the erstwhile Larry had, indeed, transitioned full-time into the land of estrogen.



We here at the Screengrab, of course, like a good sex-change rumor as much as anyone. But, honestly, we’re cool with anything that makes Larry/Lana happy...especially if it means the Wachowski Siblings will someday get back to making ballsy films like Bound and the original Matrix...no matter how many actual balls they’re packin’.
