January 26, 2004 — IGN reports that The Wachowski brothers (The Matrix Trilogy) will no longer produce King Conan because of artistic disagreements with writer/director John Milius.
Sources advised IGN FilmForce that the Wachowskis who had reportedly clashed with Milius over the tone and direction of the film left King Conan of their own volition. The project had remained stalled in development hell while the Wachowskis completed their Matrix trilogy.
The future of King Conan is now up in the air. Whether Warner Brothers will continue to develop it or if they will allow their option to lapse instead remains to be seen. No word yet on who might replace the Wachowskis as producer should Warners choose to stick with Conan.
