When the Walt Disney Company moved to acquire 20th Century Fox, many worried about more adult characters like Deadpool.
However, on a recent earnings call, the CEO of Disney Bob Iger assured investors that Disney plans on keeping Deadpool rated R.

According to i09, Iger said the company will be ?carefully branding [R-rated films]?so we?re not in any way confusing the consumer.?
