The Shootening

Hot on the heels of the launch of OmniCorp viral site earlier in week, Jose Padilha’s RoboCop remake has pushed out a teaser poster for the film. It’s nothing special, but hey, I thought I’d sure it to you anyway. That’s not all, though. Nope. We’ve also got the synopsis for the film! Yeah, we know how excited you get for synopses. Check it out.

“In RoboCop, the year is 2029 and multinational conglomerate OmniCorp is at the center of robot technology. Their drones are winning American wars around the globe and now they want to bring this technology to the home front. Alex Murphy is a loving husband, father and good cop doing his best to stem the tide of crime and corruption in Detroit. After he is critically injured in the line of duty, OmniCorp utilizes their remarkable science of robotics to save Alex’s life. He returns to the streets of his beloved city with amazing new abilities, but with issues a regular man has never had to face before.”

WOW. Sounds remarkable like… RoboCop. Okay, like with The Wolverine, I was infinitely more interested in the project when Darren Aronofsky was onboard. Still, the cast of Joel Kinnaman, Abbie Cornish, Gary Oldman, Samuel L. Jackson, and Hugh Laurie gives me hope that it won’t be just another cheap cash-in.

RoboCop starts his patrol on our screens from the 9th August 2013.
