Ryan Reynolds Still Hoping For Deadpool R-Rating

The rating is still to be determined for the Merc With The Mouth movie.

Fans of the comics know that Deadpool could easily go the R-Rated route; however, that was one thing that seemed to be holding up the movie from getting made in that Fox Studios executives didn’t think an R-rated “superhero” movie could make it.

Things changed when the Deadpool footage was leaked, and the movie is now getting made.

Earlier today saw Ryan Reynolds fire off a couple of tweets: one showing his Deadpool physique, but the other stated they are still fighting for the R-rating.

A while back, Deadpool creator Rob Liefeld agreed that the movie could still be hilarious and brutal with a PG-13 rating.

“Deadpool” has a February 12, 2016 release directed by Tim Miller starring Ryan Reynolds, Morena Baccarin, TJ Miller, Gina Carano and Brianna Hildebrand.

“@DPklok051: Is it going to be rated R or PG-13?” I want #Deadpool to be R. Always have. Fighting the good fight still. Lotta yelling today.
