The Expendables 2 Will Now Be Rated R Confirms Sylvester Stallone


Sylvester Stallone confirms The Expendables 2 for an R rating

Back in January, actor-writer Sylvester Stallone confirmed his action sequel The Expendables 2 was aiming for a PG-13 rating, which enraged fans of the R-rated original. Sylvester Stallone has now changed his mind, instead confirming they are bringing an R rating to this action-packed sequel.

Here's what Sylvester Stallone had to say below.

"After taking in all the odd rumors and hearsay, Expendables 2 is an R."

It's odd that Sylvester Stallone refers to the PG-13 news as "rumors and hearsay," since he confirmed the PG-13 rating himself in a previous interview. The first we heard about The Expendables 2 getting a PG-13 ratings was from an interview with Chuck Norris, who said he forced the filmmakers to cut out all of the foul language because he doesn't do R rated movies.

The Expendables 2 doesn't hit theaters until August, which means there is plenty of time to cut and shape the film the way Sylvester Stallone and his creative crew see fit. The MPAA hasn't handed out any official rating for The Expendables 2 at this time.

The Expendables 2 comes to theaters August 17th, 2012 and stars Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Bruce Willis, Liam Hemsworth, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Chuck Norris, Jet Li. The film is directed by Simon West.
