gscene.comDirector of popular 1999 film The Matrix and its sequels – alongside sister Lana – Lilly Wachowski has recently confirmed that the films were always meant to be an allegory for the trans experience.
She told Netflix that when the film was produced, the ‘corporate world wasn’t ready’ for more explicit queer movie narratives but continued ‘I love how meaningful these films are to trans people.
I’m glad that it has gotten out that that was the original intention.’Lana came out as trans in 2012, and Lilly in 2016. Lilly said: “I don’t know how present my transness was in the background of my brain when we were writing it [The Matrix], but it all came from the same sort of fire”.
