RIDDICK Lands an R-Rating

Movie Riddick by Joey Paur

Vin Diesel's Riddick officially got an R-rating from the MPAA. This isn't really that surprising as Universal Pictures gave the movie the green light knowing that it would be rated R. 

The movie was written and directed by David Twohy, and it got the R-rating for "strong violence, language and some sexual content/nudity."

The movie also stars Karl Urban, Jordi Molla, Matt Nable, Katee Sackhoff, Bokeem Woodbine, Dave Bautista, Conrad Pla, Raoul Trujillo, Nolan Funk and Keri Hilson. But, as of right now, the movie still doesn't have a release date.

The R rating is something that the fans wanted, now that we got it, what do you all think? 

Here's the previously released Synopsis:

The infamous Riddick has been left for dead on a sun-scorched planet that appears to be lifeless. Soon, however, he finds himself fighting for survival against alien predators more lethal than any human he's encountered. The only way off is for Riddick to activate an emergency beacon and alert mercenaries who rapidly descend to the planet in search of their bounty. 

The first ship to arrive carries a new breed of merc, more lethal and violent, while the second is captained by a man whose pursuit of Riddick is more personal. With time running out and a storm on the horizon that no one could survive, his hunters won't leave the planet without Riddick's head as their trophy.
