The face you see in the picture above, attached to Robocop’s body is director Darren Aronofsky, I know.. it’s cheesy but hey, he’ll be directing the remake anyway, so whatever direction it’s going to take, it will be done through his vision, hence the face.
MTV got the chance to talk to the producers of the reboot, Brad Fischer and Mike Medavoy and the New ROBOCOP is definitely going to be rated R, just like the previous three films.
That’s good! Because we like our half robot half cop to be nothing but extra violent, extra gory, and extra hardcore metal.
They said that the movie will be a ‘Re-Imagining. I like that word.
Re-imagining worked well for The Incredible Hulk.
This officially REJECTS the previous rumor that said it might be a sequel.
“None of [the earlier films are] going to be canonical, as a matter of fact,”
“Definitely not a sequel,”
But why a Re-imagining? This is their reason..
“The themes of machines and technology, for instance, that’s certainly become even more prevalent today in terms of man giving up certain things to his creations and his technology and his reliance to that. It’s pretty provocative stuff,” he said. “You’ve got people today with all kinds of different implants and mechanical implants. Where does that person become no longer human? After the first one? After 50 percent of the brain gets replaced? A lot of the themes that we dealt with in the original are still very interesting to us.”
