THE SUICIDE SQUAD Officially Rated R For All The Usual Reasons... And "Graphic Nudity"

As we expected it would be, James Gunn's The Suicide Squad has been officially rated R for all the usual reasons (violence, language), but there's also "some sexual refences" and "brief graphic nudity."

As we know, James Gunn's The Suicide Squad was always envisioned as an R-rated movie, and the recent red band trailer made it very clear that the director was fully embracing this more adult-oriented take on the DC Comics supervillain team.

Now, the upcoming reboot/sequel has received an official rating from the MPA, and it sounds like the movie is going all-in with some hard R content.

The Suicide Squad has been rated R for "strong violence and gore, language throughout, some sexual references, drug use and brief graphic nudity."

Before the horny Harley Quinn fan-boys get too excited, this is most likely a reference to Weasel - the furry CGI loon who doesn't appear to be overly fond of wearing pants. That's just our assumption based on what we've seen from the film so far, but either way, whenever "graphic nudity" is listed as a reason for an R rating, more often than not it's male graphic nudity.

Gunn usually weighs in on this type of stuff on Twitter, so we can probably expect clarification on exactly who's meat and two veg we can look forward to seeing soon.

"Welcome to hell — a.k.a. Bell Reve, the prison with the highest mortality rate in the US of A. Where the worst Super-Villains are kept and where they will do anything to get out — even join the super-secret, super-shady Task Force X. Today's do-or-die assignment? Assemble a collection of cons, including Bloodsport, Peacemaker, Captain Boomerang, Ratcatcher 2, Savant, King Shark, Blackguard, Javelin, and everyone's favorite psycho, Harley Quinn. Then arm them heavily and drop them (literally) on the remote, enemy-infused island of Corto Maltese."
"Trekking through a jungle teeming with militant adversaries and guerrilla forces at every turn, the Squad is on a search-and- destroy mission with only Colonel Rick Flag on the ground to make them behave...and Amanda Waller’s government techies in their ears, tracking their every movement. And as always, one wrong move and they’re dead (whether at the hands of their opponents, a teammate, or Waller herself). If anyone’s laying down bets, the smart money is against them—all of them."

The Suicide Squad is set to premiere on HBO Max and in theaters on August 6.

Don't tell me that we're really gonna see that beach full of [you know what] scene that John Cena's character is fantasizing about in the trailer. lol

@Amuro - I mean, fantasizing isn't the right word. He's clearly not excited to do that, and only said that to show his commitment to America. I mean, maybe after the film when we get the full context of his character (like he keeps out of nowhere talking about eating you know what) we can see that as a fantasy, but not right now.
