So rest assured, folks who’ve read the novel and Jennifer Lawrence fans in general, it sounds like this movie won’t be for the squeamish.
CinemaBlend’s own Conner Schwerdtfeger was in attendance at 20th Century Fox’s London presentation of some of their upcoming movies, and during the Red Sparrow section, Francis Lawrence assured everyone that Red Sparrow will be aiming for an R rating from the MPAA.
It’s how he wanted to tackle this since reading the Red Sparrow book, and fortunately for him, the studio was game for that approach.
Violence, cursing, suggestive material, you name it.
