While director Matthew Vaughn didn’t feel his next film Argylle needed an R-rating, he admits that editing the movie to get there was an “annoying” process.Set to hit theaters on Feb. 2, Argylle is partly a comedy and partly a spy film. It stars Henry Cavill as a secret agent from a supposedly-fictional novel series who’s revealed to actually exist. In an interview with Total Film ahead of Argylle’s theatrical release, Matthew Vaughn expressed how the film was a different beast compared to other movies he’s done, and he didn’t necessarily design Argylle to be rated R. With that noted, Vaughn found himself surprised by some of the changes that were requested for him to secure a PG-13 rating, which he says was simultaneously annoying and amusing.The director continued, “It sort of made me laugh. I didn’t know this at the time but headshots give you an R, chest shots, don’t. I said, ‘I don’t understand that because shooting someone in the chest is acceptable, but then the head is really bad?’ I don’t think most people care where you’re going to get shot, if you’re gonna get shot, you’re gonna get shot.”
