Whether you’re ready or not, there’s a new RoboCop movie on the way from Columbia Pictures and MGM. The remake finds Joel Kinnaman (The Killing) taking on the role of a cop who becomes a crime-fighting cyborg following a horrible accident. Directed by Jose Padilha, the cast includes Michael Keaton, Samuel L Jackson, Abbie Cornish, Jackie Earle Haley, and Gary Oldman.
RoboCop enters theaters on February 12, 2014.
The Plot: In RoboCop, the year is 2028 and multinational conglomerate OmniCorp is at the center of robot technology. Overseas, their drones have been used by the military for years – and it’s meant billions for OmniCorp’s bottom line. Now OmniCorp wants to bring their controversial technology to the home front, and they see a golden opportunity to do it. When Alex Murphy (Joel Kinnaman) – a loving husband, father and good cop doing his best to stem the tide of crime and corruption in Detroit – is critically injured in the line of duty, OmniCorp sees their chance for a part-man, part-robot police officer.
OmniCorp envisions a RoboCop in every city and even more billions for their shareholders, but they never counted on one thing: there is still a man inside the machine pursuing justice.
