<p>The Marvel Cinematic Universe has undeniably become a cultural juggernaut. Over the years, they have weaved together a tapestry of superheroes and adventures that have captured the hearts of millions. While the MCU is celebrated for its family-friendly appeal, it also ventured into more mature territory. With R-rated films like <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/ryan-reynolds/">Ryan Reynolds</a>’ <em>Deadpool</em> and the upcoming <em>Blade</em> reboot, it is no wonder fans want more.</p>
<p>Fans only recently found out that director Yann Demange confirmed Marvel&#8217;s <em>Blade</em> movie will be rated R. However, there is already a long list of other projects that everyone is hoping for updates on.</p>
<h2>5 Marvel rated R projects fans want to see</h2>
<p>As Marvel steadily ventures into the darker, grittier territory of superheroes, they have ignited the imagination of fans who crave more mature-themed projects. It may take some time until those dreams are made into reality. However, that has not stopped their fans from holding on to hope. Here are a few projects that fans are hoping to see on a big screen soon:</p>
<h3>Wolverine</h3>
<p>While the world thought they had said their goodbyes to the <em>X-Men</em> character in 2017&#8217;s <em>Logan,</em> Ryan Reynolds ended up changing that. After he brought <a href="https://www.netflixjunkie.com/hollywood-news-when-hugh-jackman-was-reluctant-to-star-in-deadpool-3-ryan-reynolds-had-to-drag-the-wolverine/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hugh Jackman back as the iconic character for <em>Deadpool 3</em></a><em>,</em> fans are hoping that the MCU will be bringing the mutant for one final hurray. With the 55-year-old retiring from his beloved role, the speculations for a new Wolverine have been swirling.</p>

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>From rumors that <a href="https://www.netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-daniel-radcliffe-looks-astounding-as-a-hugh-jackman-replacement-as-wolverine-in-this-crazy-fan-art/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Daniel Radcliff could potentially take over the role</a> to speculation of a stand-alone film featuring Hugh Jackman, fans of the character have been thrown for a spin. While there is a long list of actors who could play Wolverine and do an outstanding job, the world is still not ready to part ways with Jackman&#8217;s portrayal of the character.</p>

<p>However, with radio silence from the MCU, fans may have to wait a little while longer before the highly-anticipated film receives an update.</p>
<h3>Punisher</h3>
<p>In the past, the <em>Punisher&#8217;s</em> presence in the MCU has been primarily on the small screen. However, the prospect of a film dedicated to the character&#8217;s story has been a hot topic among fans and enthusiasts. After many memorable portrayals in the Netflix series and a stint in <em>The Punisher</em>, fans have been vocal about their desire to see the vigilante brought into the MCU in a standalone film.</p>
<div class="flex-video widescreen youtube"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Marvel’s The Punisher: Season 2 | Official Trailer [HD] | Netflix" width="1170" height="658" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/jrLhP5sK2wI?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
<p>While Frank Castle&#8217;s character could delve into the darker and more morally ambiguous realm of Marvel, that has only excited fans further. There are already 3 <em>Punisher</em> films that came out years ago. However, none of them are connected to the Marvel universe. While a film of their own could prove to be a game-changer, the MCU has not unveiled any such plans as of yet.</p>

<p>Hopefully, they might have a change of heart soon and give the people what they want. However, there is also a possibility of the film never seeing the light of day.</p>
<h3>Daredevil</h3>
<p>Over the years, there is one character who has garnered a dedicated fanbase. In the comics, he is depicted as the crimson-clad vigilante who patrols the streets of Hell&#8217;s Kitchen. It is the <em>Marvel’s Daredevil</em>. Although fans have seen a memorable portrayal of the character by Charlie Cox in the Netflix series, the desire for a standalone Daredevil film has grown louder with each passing day.</p>
<div class="flex-video widescreen youtube"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Marvel&#039;s Daredevil | Official Trailer [HD] | Netflix" width="1170" height="658" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/jAy6NJ_D5vU?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
<p>It could give audiences a better look at the character&#8217;s history and other storylines. However, so far, Marvel has not come up with any film plans. Although Cox&#8217;s groundwork could pave the way for a more complex plot, nothing regarding film plans for Daredevil has been brought to light.</p>
<h3>Ghost Rider</h3>
<p>The world will never forget Nicholas Cage in the <em>Ghost Rider</em> franchise. However, it looks like the Marvel fanbase is ready for one of their own. For years, the online world has had its fingers crossed hoping for plans for an authentic comic portrayal of the antihero. While a stand-alone film could give fans various other arcs that no one knows about, it could also shed some light on his past.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">I think Marvel needs to forget about the current MCU and just make another Nicolas Cage Ghost Rider movie. That&#39;s what we really need <a href="https://t.co/vlAygwZHr7">pic.twitter.com/vlAygwZHr7</a></p>
<p>&mdash; MegaMatt (@MegamattX86) <a href="https://twitter.com/MegamattX86/status/1720067391135084635?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 2, 2023</a></p></blockquote>
<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>As one of Marvel&#8217;s most enigmatic and visually striking antiheroes, Ghost Rider has been the subject of intense fan desire for a standalone film in the MCU. From the flaming skull to the infernal powers, the antihero&#8217;s appeal is undeniable. However, with there being multiple films based on the character already out, it does not look like Marvel has any plans for creating another one.</p>

<p>While that might be the case for now, there is no saying what could happen a few years down the line. In fact, there could even be a revelation coming soon.</p>
<h3>Sentry</h3>
<p>The Sentry, also known as Robert Reynolds, is a complex and multi-dimensional character. He has a unique backstory and immense powers that rival even the mightiest heroes in the Marvel Universe. This is why fans are hoping that the superhero gets a film of his own.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Disney created Sentry 4 years before Marvel <a href="https://t.co/yiMY4kQmcM">pic.twitter.com/yiMY4kQmcM</a></p>

<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>While he has made appearances in the comics and various crossover events, it has always left fans wanting more. So far, Marvel has not come forward with any plans to add him to their growing list of superhero films. However, fans can rejoice as he makes a comeback in a new comic series by Jason Loo and artist Luigi Zagaria.</p>
