Lily was also born on the 29th of December, 1967.

They made their directorial debut with Bound in 1996 and rose to prominence with their second picture, The Matrix in 1999, a massive box office blockbuster for which they received the Saturn Award for Best Director. They authored and directed its two sequels, The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions both in the year 2003, and were involved in the development and production of subsequent Matrix franchise works.

They all dropped out of school before graduating, and they ran a house painting and construction business in Chicago.

The Wachowski went to Kellogg Elementary School and Whitney Young High School before dropping out of college to pursue their business interests, including home painting and building.  The Wachowskis’ Hollywood career began in 1995 as writers for the action film “Assassins” starring Sylvester Stallone and Antonio Banderas. This provided them with new chances, and they created and directed the 1996 heist film “Bound”.  However, the Wachowskis’ biggest breakthrough smash would come three years later, in 1999, with the publication of “The Matrix”, which experienced international popularity and established the Wachowskis on the Hollywood A-list.

The entire series grossed more than 1 billion dollars globally, establishing their net worth.

The first protuberant Hollywood filmmaker to come out as transgender, Lana earned the Human Rights Campaign’s Visibility Award that October and made an uplifting speech about growing up transgender.

Lana had that strange feeling to be transgender since high school and didn’t want to join the boys in line at the parade but rather wishes to join the girls since he feels that was where he belonged. Lana was worried about losing her family so told her therapist to come out with a therapy that would take like five to six years. She was accepted when she got home and was happy since she feared losing them.

Lilly came out as a transgender in 2016. Her agent got emails from reporters requesting responses concerning the “Andy Wachowski transition” story they were preparing to publish.
