Nemesis
Nemesis is a comic book created by Mark Millar (creator of Kick-Ass and The Secret Service) and published by Icon of Marvel Comics. And Nemesis, the supervillain persona of Matt Anderson, is basically the anti-Batman. As Millar said, What if Batman was the Joker, a highly trained and highly resourceful psychopathic killer?
It’s interesting that 20th Century Fox (yes, the studio that scored it big with Logan and Deadpool) has had the rights for the movie since 2010, when they began writing the script. Tony Scott (True Romance, Man on Fire) was attached to direct (and even started working on it with his company), but he died in 2012.
In 2013, Mark Millar said that he’d read the script, and it was very good. He added that the movie would be made, and it would be massive if Kingsman: The Secret Service performed well at the box office. As it turned out, Kingsman exceeded all expectations.
In August 2015, Warner Bros. announced that Nemesis would be made. And since then"¦
So will Warner Bros. make it R-rated? If the movie is made, it will certainly be intended for mature audiences. After all, this is a relatively unknown comic book from Mark Millar, and his hyper-violent comics always work well with R-ratings.
