Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith (http://www.comingsoon.net/films.php?id=4777) was interviewed by CBS' 60 Minutes and says the third and final prequel will not likely receive the PG rating the previous five films have received.
"I don't think I would take a five- or a six-year-old to this," says Lucas, "It's way too strong."
Lucas is referring to violent scenes in the film and also to Anakin Skywalker's journey to the dark side in the climax of the 30-year-old
series. "We're going to watch him make a pact with the devil," Lucas tells the program.
He says Skywalker will be descending into Lucas' frightening vision of Hell, a mythical planet composed entirely of erupting volcanos. "Yes...the lava at the end...it ends in hell."
"[The film] is much more dark...more emotional. It's much more of a tragedy," adds Lucas. "My feeling is that it will probably be a PG-13, so it will be the first Star Wars that's a PG-13."
The interview will be broadcast on Sunday, March 13 from 7:00-8:00pm, ET/PT.
