According to M3GAN writer, Akelan Cooper, she co-wrote a script that’s “way gorier” than the one that made it to the big screen.

Wan’s collaborator on Malignant and The Nun 2 explained the studio’s reasoning behind the PG-13 rating that ended up withholding all of the blood and gore she had written for the killer AI companion doll: Director Gerard Johnstone also chipped in saying that the changes for the film to fit under the PG-13 rating resulted in a more intuitive viewing experience: With the dance scene in the official trailer going viral, the film’s promotional campaign got a big boost. When the younger generations got a whiff of it, a decrease in violence to suit the PG-13 rating was only reasonable, making the movie suitable for a much younger audience of the genre. Universal and Blumhouse’s M3GAN features Allison Williams as Gemma, Violet McGraw as Cady, Gemma’s orphaned niece, and Amie Donald as M3GAN, with Jenna Davis voicing the titular robot killer. Given M3GAN’s success and the resurgence in the popularity of Chuckie, we wouldn’t be surprised if those crossover talks last year came true.
