The actor was fired.Go to www.killermovies.com in the Matrix Reloaded theres an article that explains everything.

I figured that he must have died just after the Sentinels attacked the Neb, probably because he was still injured from Cypher's EMP-grun attack.
Korri

Kes
They say he died on a mission. Thats all
Korri

Kes you say they wrote him out of the movie? I don't remember them mentioning him in Reloaded.
Korri

Kes
Link and his wife talk about him. She says i lost 2brothers to that ship or something like that.
Korri
ahhh!! yeah i remember now
Kes
Yeh I liked him. I was really glad he survived in the end

But it turns out the actor is an a$$!
Metroplex
I wonder how he dies??? He probably died shortly before M2 since Link just joined the Neb
rysdigital
nah, he's cool. did you even read the E! online article?
he suggested to do the matrix films for free.
nopy
probably fell down an elevator shaft like Joey in freinds
Kes
I've read several articles. Some say he asked for to much cash others say he keeped showing up stoned and causing problems.
Metroplex
Ohh thats a bad way to die. Is he still gonna sue the W. brothers?
Ikobe
Like he'd get away with it.

Chong, 35, also accused the filmmakers of "intentionally publishing numerous false statements ... that he was a terrorist," and of conspiring to blackball him in Hollywood.
A bail receipt document posted on a fan Web site shows that Chong was arrested on Oct. 18, 2000 for allegedly making threats -- five days after his salary negotiations with the studio collapsed.
Film industry sources said the actor made repeated phone calls of a harassing nature to the filmmakers after his salary demands were not met. Tank was subsequently written out of the sequels and replaced with a character named Link.
Im not sure if this is reliable http://www.geekroar.com/film/archives/2003_05.php

Poor Marcus Chong. He still gets points in my book, although I should like to kick him for making Panther

. Did you all know that he is the son of Tommy Chong (Cheech's hommie) and the brother of Rae Dawn Chong (that boring supernatural show). BAMSA!
Oops he isn't Tommy Chongs son. He is just "adopted"

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but were there ever any updates of what happened to Marcus Chong? Was he really a terrorist or were they just rumors? And did he ever try to sue the W Bros? (Again, sorry for bringing this up again since it's old, but I'm curious)

He's an overly aggressive guy, that seems certain. Whatever case he might have had was ruined by his actions.

Jkozzy> It's better to revive an old thread than to start a new one.

Old Harold is better anyway, I hope there are more OZ characters in M3 like Shillinger and Keller, mabey Adibisi.
