Are The Wachowskis Making An iraq Film?

We've all been waiting to see how the Wachowski Brothers will follow up (and, er, wipe our memories clear of) Speed Racer, and Huffington Post founder/blogger Arianna Huffington thinks she knows, as she's been shooting footage with them for what she describes as an Iraq war-based film set in the future.

The lads over at Slash Film uncovered Huffington's tweetson the subject, which's she's dragged out of the murky wold of rumour by posting actual images of her at the shoot and with the Wachowskis (Larry, by the way, is now known as Lana).

But while they speculated that it could be for an actual film in production, Devin over at CHUD looked into it and quickly shot that idea down, discovering that they were actually just shooting visual tests.

Naturally, everything is wrapped in the usual layer of Wachowski-style mystery, but current thinking points towards the pair getting ready to make their next stab at directing.

They've been linked to producing version of David Mitchell's post-modern, futuristic novel Cloud Atlas, with Tom Tykwer at the helm, but that appears nowhere near ready to shoot.

So no secret movie yet - but at least they seem to be gearing up for… something.
