Check out Robocop's sweet ride in new set photos
More set photos from the Robocop shoot have emerged, and like the rest of them I'm sure these will spark debate. I think people saw Joel Kinnaman in the suit, which is admittedly very different than the original, and immediately assumed the film would somehow be a disaster. I don't agree with that, and considering the talented Jose Padilha is directing a very impressive cast, chances are Robocop will be one remake worth looking forward.
The latest snaps come from NewsCom, and show Robocop's futuristic motorcycle. I dig it, and along with the sleeker suit design underscores that this version of the cyborg is meant for speed, not bulk. Admit it, the original Robocop suit is pretty clunky.
Starring Joel Kinnaman, Abbie Cornish, Gary Oldman, Samuel L. Jackson, Jay Baruchel, Michael Keaton, Jackie Earle Haley, Jennifer Ehle, and Michael K. Williams, Robocop opens next year on August 9th. Check out the rest of the images below....
