In the United States, the two Deadpoolmovies and Logan now on Disney+ (here in the Netherlands that has been the case for some time). This makes them the first R-rated films to be added to Disney+’s offering in that country.
Now that the three films are showing on Disney+, the Parents Television and Media Council (PTC) has strongly criticized Disney+. The streaming service would have broken its promise.
Geen R-rated content
When Disney+ launched, the company said it would only launch family-friendly content. PTC Chairman Tim Winter says the addition of the Deadpoolmovies and Logan break that promise.
“Three years ago, The Walt Disney Company promised all families that there would be no R-rated movies on Disney+. They said it would be a family-friendly platform. They said we have Hulu for the more mature content. But it turns out that they were lying. After decades of business-brilliant choices, establishing itself as the world’s most trusted brand for families, Disney’s C-level suite has decided to flush it all down the toilet.”
Earlier this year, Disney also added the DefendersVerse to its offering, TV-MA series that were also made specifically for adults.
