In June, the upcoming MCU film Deadpool & Wolverine received an R rating by The Motion Picture Association’s Classification and Rating Administration.
"Well, I’m not saying that other people should do this, but my 9-year-old watched the movie with me and my mom, who’s in her late 70s, and it was just was one of the best moments of this whole experience for me," Reynolds said during the interview.
He added, "Both of them were laughing their guts out, were feeling the emotion where I most desperately hoped people would be."
Reynolds further explained why he allowed James to watch the film, stating, "when I saw rated-R movies when I was a kid, they left a huge impression on me because I didn’t feel like people were pulling punches, and it’s been a huge inspiration to so many of the things that I look to make now."
Previously, in an interview with Variety Magazine Reynolds along with Hugh Jackman and director Shawn Levy discussed bringing kids to watch Deadpool & Wolverine.
