Actually, I'd like to see Warners take a risk and let him deliver an R-rated film, but that's probably asking too much given (a) Warners is now riding high on Aquaman, so I don't know if they'd do an R-tentpole, and (b) it stars Harley Quinn who will also be in the, I'm guessing, PG-13 Birds of Prey. Warners likely wants Harley to remain PG-13 to keep the character's mass appeal intact.
The only way Warners might have SS rated R would be to omit Harley, and then tone the movie to go after the Deadpool crowd.
