"Director Albert Hughes (Menace II Society, From Hell, The Book of Eli) told The Kevin and Josh Movie Show in a Friday radio interview that Warner Brothers gave him a "mandate" for a PG-13 rating on the planned live-action films of Katsuhiro Otomo's Akira science-fiction manga."
Akira was never my favorite manga or anime. However, I have a great deal of respect for it's style. I'm wondering how the director can keep it PG-13 while still fully exploring the more mature themes in the story line.
Then again, the Batman reboots have been PG-13...maybe it can be done....
