New character posters for Robocop remake

Plus a new trailer on the way too.

A new batch of character posters for sci-fi remake ‘Robocop’ have marched online, ahead of an official trailer launch later this week.

The new promos frame Joel Kinnaman’s iconic cop-turned-bot character Alex Murphy, Samuel L. Jackson’s super slick TV host and Gary Oldman’s scientist Dr. Dennett Norton.


We also get our first proper look at Jennifer Ehle’s character Liz Kline and, Jackie Earle Haley as “military tactician” Maddox.



The remake of Paul Verhoeven’s cult 1987 movie (starring Peter Weller) re-imagines the same classic storyline: a police officer transformed into a justice-dishing-out machine, after he’s critically wounded in the line of duty. Only the tech corporation behind the mechanical make-over might not be as ethical as they seem.

‘Robocop’, directed by Jose Padilha and co-starring Michael Keaton, Abbie Cornish and Jay Baruchel, is out in the UK 7 February 2014.

Before the new trailer arrives later this week, check out the first one below.
