“I think it’s gonna be R. I don’t think we’re trying to make a PG-13 version of Bad Boys.
Unless things change, I think we’re making a Bad Boys film and that’s an R-rated movie.”
The 2003 sequel Bad Boys II, which was also rated R, pulled in $136.8 million domestically and $273.3 million worldwide, from a $130 million budget.
After languishing in development for several years, Bad Boys 3 is finally back on the right track, with Joe Carnahan coming aboard to write and direct.
