‘The Wolverine’ Sequel To Be Rated R? First Logo Revealed!

Briefly: Please be true.

This past weekend at the New York Toy Fair, Fox handed out a pamphlet to attendees noting all of their upcoming theatrical and home video releases.

Being just a year away at this point, the highly anticipated sequel to 2013’s The Wolverine made the pamphlet, giving us our very first logo for the feature, as well as noting a ‘Targeted Rating’ of R.

This comes at a time when the R-rated Deadpool shattered (and continues to shatter) financial expectations, breaking box office records, and this draw is likely to continue with the fantastic word of mouth that everyone has been giving the feature.

Based on that, if there was ever an appropriate time for a more mature Wolverine film, that time is now, and we can only hope that this wasn’t a misprint. That said, is it a safe move to take a PG/PG-13 character that people of all ages have been watching for years, and give him a more mature angle? I could anticipate a lot of angry parents ignorine ratings and walking out of theatres with their young ones.

Take a look at the image below, and be sure to let us know what you hope to see in the next The Wolverine! The film hits theatres on March 3rd, 2017!
