Deadpool seems to have opened the proverbial pandora’s box as now, apparently, a slew of R-rated super hero films is to follow.
The next Wolverine and possibly X-Force are all said to be R-Rated, and recently saw news hit about an R-Rated Batman Vs. Superman director’s cut.
So will Marvel Studios follow?
While that seems highly unlikely, Ant-Man director Peyton Reed and Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn have fun with the notion.
Petyon Reed took to Twitter to state the Ant-Man and the Wasp sequel will be NC-17, which was followed up with a tweet from Gunn stating Inhumans will be a snuff film.
On a side note, initially The Avengers movie was given an R-rating due to Coulson’s death scene. The scene originally was more graphic which showed Loki impaling Coulson from behind with the blade coming out of Coulson’s chest. The final version only saw the aftermath with the blade sticking out.
@MrPeytonReed I hear The Inhumans is gonna be a snuff film.
