The Wachowskis’ Ninja Rain

I’m either experiencing a total brain fart or I’ve just never plain heard of this before. Did you know that Larry and Andy Wachowski are already planning another film? I don’t think I’ve heard that piece of news before, but what the hell do I know.

The film is called Ninja Assassin and I would assume the movie is about a ninja assassin. Don’tcha think? And the big news is that the film has filled that ninja assassinating role. The ninja assassin will be played by Rain. No, not the stuff that falls out of the sky, but a South Korean pop star. I’ve never heard of this person, either. There’s a lot of things in this world I don’t know, but not knowing either of these two things until now is really bothering me. But I really like typing the words “ninja assassin” together. Ninja Rain would be a good title for a film, too.

Rain is also appearing in Speed Racer and made his big film debut in a movie called I’m a Cyborg, and That’s OK, which is a fun title, too.

And the Wachowskis may not direct this film. Instead they’ll probably throw it to their pal James McTeigue, who directed V for Vendetta.
