Star Wars: The Force Awakens gets PG-13 rating

The upcoming seventh instalment of Star Wars franchise has received PG-13 rating.

It becomes the second movie in the series to receive a PG-13 rating following 2005’s “Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith”, reported Aceshowbiz.

It has got the rating for content described as “sci-fi action violence.” 

PG-13 is the default rating for mainstream blockbusters including this year’s Jurassic World, Avengers: Age of Ultron, Furious 7 and The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Part 2. In total, eight of this year’s top 10 movies are rated PG-13.

All other Star Wars films were released in PG ratings as the PG-13 rating was only created in 1984, after the release of the original Star Wars trilogy. 

Star Wars: The Force Awakens, starring Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, John Boyega, Daisy Ridley and Oscar Isaac opens in US theatres on December 18.
