Eva Green’s Sin City 2 movie poster rejected by MPAA for being ‘too sexy’

IS the movie poster for Sin City 2, featuring French beauty Eva Green, really so raunchy it needed to be banned?

A FILM poster featuring French actress Eva Green in a saucy pose has been rejected by America’s movie classification board because it is ‘too sexy’.

The 33-year-old Casino Royale star appears on the advertisement for Sin City sequel A Dame to Kill For, brandishing a gun and wearing a sheer bathrobe which clearly displays her breasts.

Officials at the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) have disapproved of the image due to “nudity — curve of under breast and dark nipple/areola circle visible through sheer gown,” which seems an awfully specific complaint. We imagine someone at the MPAA spent a long afternoon with a magnifying glass figuring out exactly what was offensive about the poster.

This poster featuring Eva Green from the new film Sin City 2 has been banned from promotional use by the MPAA after being deemed too sexy.

A spokesperson for the thriller’s distributor Dimension Films declined to comment but it is thought executives will work with MPAA members to find a compromise, according to New York Post gossip column Page Six. We’re into winter now, so perhaps a nice woolly cardigan for Ms Green?

Sin City: A Dame to Kill For also stars Jessica Alba, Mickey Rourke and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and will hit cinemas in August.
