Today’s batch of MPAA ratings is nearly void of any titles of interest outside of the final one. Diablo Cody (Juno, Young Adult) steps behind the camera for her feature directorial debut, working from her own script for what is still being called the Untitled Diablo Cody Project, though it has been referred to as Lamb of God in the past.
The film is a comedy starring Julianne Hough (Rock of Ages) as a sheltered young woman who loses her faith after a plane crash and decides to go to Las Vegas to experience the wild side of life. On her journey, she meets unlikely companions (Russell Brand and Octavia Spencer) who inadvertently help her find her true self.
It has earned a PG-13 rating for sexual material, substance abuse, some language and thematic elements and as of now still doesn’t have a distributor, let alone a release date. I have to assume it’s a title we’ll see at Sundance in January and will likely be scooped up based on name alone, but it will be interesting to see what Cody can accomplish as a director.
You can click on any of the titles mentioned above for more information, otherwise, here are the latest MPAA ratings from Bulletin #2249.
