Following the success of the R-Rated Fox Studios Deadpool movie, will Marvel Studios follow suit?
What should come as no surprise, the answer is no.
Disney CEO Bob Iger commented on the success of the Deadpool movie today at a Disney shareholder meeting and said Marvel will not be making any R-rated movies.
A reporter for the LA Times was on hand and tweeted about it.
“We don’t have any plans to make R-rated Marvel movies,” Iger says in response to a shareholder comment about Fox’s hit film, “Deadpool.”

While Marvel Studios doesn’t plan on any R-rated superhero movies, Fox has already greenlit the sequel for Deadpool; it’s being reported the next Wolverine and possibly X-Force could be R-Rated, and it’s been said Zack Snyder has an R-Rated Batman Vs. Superman director’s cut coming out on Blu-Ray for WB.
