Ridley Scott’s Napoleon, starring Joaquin Phoenix, has been rated R by the MPAA for strong violence, some grisly images, sexual content, and brief language.
The film is directed by Ridley Scott from a screenplay by David Scarpa. The film is an original and personal look at Napoleon Bonaparte’s origins and his swift, ruthless climb to the emperor, viewed through the prism of his addictive and often volatile relationship with his wife and one true love, Josephine. According to Deadline, the film is being considered Cannes premiere.

The film is produced by Apple Studios and Scott Free Productions.
