Kevin Feige Says Marvel’s New Blade Movie Has to Be R-Rated

Apple is teaming with Chris Hemsworth on a new sci-fi adventure. Francis Lawrence’s Long Walk adaptation finds its cast. The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires is coming to HBO. Plus, go behind the scenes on Wicked, and get a new look at the Borderlands movie. Spoilers get!

The Corsair Code

According to Deadline, Chris Hemsworth will star in The Corsair Code, a “high-octane, sci-fi mystery adventure” at Apple based on a short story by Jonathan Tropper.

 

The Long Walk

Deadline also reports Garrett Wareing, Tut Nyuot, Charlie Plummer, Ben Wang, Jordan Gonzalez, Joshua Odjick and Roman Griffin Davis have joined the cast of Francis Lawrence’s upcoming film adaptation of Stephen King’s The Long Walk.

Hellboy: The Crooked Man

According to Comic Book, Hellboy: The Crooked Man has been rated “R” for “some violent content, language and nudity.”

Blade

Meanwhile, Kevin Feige promised BlackTreeTV (via Bloody-Disgusting) the cursed Blade reboot would also be rated “R” if it ever sees the light of day.

For the last few years, as we’ve been trying to crack that movie, the most important thing for us is not rushing it. And making sure we are making the right Blade movie. There were some great Blade movies years ago… they were all rated R. So I think that’s inherent–like Deadpool–inherent with the character of Blade.
