Marilyn Monroe is a new Netflix favourite that&#039;s why the streamer already has a documentary and a new film about the icon in the making.

‘Blonde’ Director Andrew Dominik Prepares Fans for the NC-17 Rated Marilyn Monroe Biopic Because “there’s something in it to offend everyone”

Blonde, the forthcoming Ana de Armas Netflix Marilyn Monroe film, will not be
your typical biography. Director Andrew Dominik has recently commented about the
picture earning an adult rating after it was issued with an NC-17 certification.
The biopic is the first Netflix Original with an adult rating of NC-17.

So naturally, many people are wondering what the director had to say about his
film’s rating. Well, Andrew recently addressed the matter, and let us take a
look at what he had to say.


ANDREW DOMINIK ON HIS MARILYN MONROE BIOPIC

In a Q&A with Vulture published today, Dominik teased Blonde, calling the
picture a small $22 million movie. And admitted he was astonished by the film’s
mature rating.

 

Blonde was supposed to launch in 2020. However, it was pushed back to September
2022. While talking about his film, Dominik said that the film’s upcoming
release is an intriguing moment.

He said so because he felt if it had come out immediately when MeToo happened,
it would have been an expression of all those things. At the same time, talking
about the film’s new adult rating

“it swims in very ambiguous waters because I don’t think it will be as
cut-and-dried as people want to see it. There’s something in it to offend
everyone.”

While further explaining the NC-17 certificate that the film has, Dominik went
on to comment, “On the one hand, I think if I’m given the choice, I’d rather go
and see the NC-17 version of the Marilyn Monroe story. 

And when asked if Netflix will be worried about the film, he said, “Netflix is a
big business with much bigger fish to fry than Blonde, in terms of where they
spend their money.”

It will surely be an exciting film to watch now that Netflix and Andrew have
chosen to keep the rating. Instead of opting to cut the scenes which are deemed
inappropriate for younger audiences.

Do let us know if you guys are interested in watching an NC-17 version of the
film or not?
