Second ‘Robocop’ Trailer, New Poster Debut Online!
Briefly: Columbia Pictures has just launched an awesome second trailer (plus a new poster) for next year’s Robocop.
The remake stars The Killing lead Joel Kinnaman as Alex Murphy, who is, well, a cop who is fatally injured and is then turned into a robot.
I wasn’t really expecting too much from this remake, but seeing that first trailer definitely raised my hope for the picture. I have to say that this second preview has raised it even further! I didn’t think a new Robocop could be cool, but Joel Kinnaman certainly looks bad-ass in the role. Then again, the new Total Recall looked pretty fantastic too… and we all know how that one turned out (bad).
Take a look at the new media below, and be sure to share your thoughts on the upcoming remake! Robocop hits theatres on February 12th!
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.
