12 Movie Spoilers We Didn’t Know Last Week (Feb 21)
9. The Wolverine 3 Will Definitely Be Rated-R
After Deadpool smashed countless box office records last weekend and is sitting at around $500 million in the bank, studios have unsurprisingly been reconsidering the financial prospects of R-rated movies. As such, the upcoming third Wolverine film has now been confirmed to be rated-R, and will be a loose adaptation of the much-loved Old Man Logan comic. Though giving the movie an R-rating had apparently been in consideration for months before Deadpool hit cinemas, this appears to have nudged Fox over the edge to give it the green light, and will allow Hugh Jackman to say goodbye to the iconic character in suitably gory fashion, considering how silly all those bloodless stabbings have seemed prior.
