Gary Oldman Joining MGM's 'Robocop' Remake (http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/gary-oldman-robocop-328774?)

Gary Oldman has inked a deal to star opposite Joel Kinnaman in MGM’s remake of Robocop.

Jose Padilha is directing the film, which is being produced by Strike Entertainment’s Marc Abraham and Eric Newman.

Kinnaman (The Killing) plays the title character, a cop named Alex Murphy who is brought back from the brink of death and turned into a cyborg police officer.

Oldman will play Norton, the scientist who creates Robocop and finds himself torn between the ideals of the machine trying to rediscover its humanity and the callous needs of a corporation.

The production is eyeing a September shoot in Toronto and has a tentative release date of summer 2013.

Happened to catch the original last week while flipping channels. God, I love that movie. And the toxic waste scene still ranks among my favorite screen deaths. :D

The first Rated R movie that my dad let me watch. I LOVED that movie as a kid!~
I did re-watch it a couple months ago and I have to say as an adult that it had some really stupid parts. I'm not disappointed in a remake, as long as they make it dark and realistic. I'd like to see Christopher Nolan do it.

I'd buy that for a dollar.

I also got to wonder if this could be a "reimagining" of the story, even down to the Roboarmor/prosthesis to make it more battle plausible specifically the facevizor because I was always irked that his mouth and chin were exposed without any type of protection of armor or another blast proof material.

Rumor around my office is that we'll be doing the post work on it. Helps that it's shooting up here. I'll certainly be working on it if it's a go.

[Aries Walker]

The Old Man was a sort-of ally in the first movie, but the villain in the second. I'm guessing they're going to combine - or at least blur the lines between - him and Dick Jones in this remake.

Can't wait to see who they cast as Clarence Boddicker. I wouldn't mind them signing Kurtwood Smith again, actually.

[Gravedigger]

Sounds like the type of movie I'll drag my girlfriend to kicking and screaming and then she'll walk out having enjoyed it, similar to the Star Trek remake =)

Williams is repped by The Collective.

Hell yeah! He is fucking awesome. With a face like his, he probably won't be playing a good guy... unless he is a good guy that had an accident at some point and horrifically scarred his face. Just sayin'.

No Hugh Laurie For ‘Robocop’ Remake (http://www.deadline.com/2012/08/no-hugh-laurie-for-robocop-remake/)
By MIKE FLEMING Friday August 24, 2012 @ 9:46am PDT

Though he was expected to play the head of the facility that made the title character, Hugh Laurie is no longer going to star in the Robocop remake at MGM. The film, which stars Joel Kinnaman in the role originated by Peter Weller, is being directed by Jose Padilha and also stars Gary Oldman, Samuel L. Jackson, Jackie Earle Haley, Abbie Cornish and Jay Baruchel. I’ve heard MGM is talking with a small group of actors to fill the role that Laurie was to play, including Clive Owen.

Michael Keaton Joins ‘Robocop’ Remake (http://www.deadline.com/2012/08/michael-keaton-joins-robocop-remake/)
By MIKE FLEMING Wednesday August 29, 2012 @ 3:31pm PDT

BREAKING: Michael Keaton has been set to play the role of Raymond Sellars in the MGM/Columbia Pictures’ RoboCop remake. Sellars is the CEO of the corporation that builds RoboCop, a role that Hugh Laurie was expected to play until he dropped out before consummating a deal. The film, a re-imagining of the 1987 Paul Verhoeven cult classic, is scheduled to begin shooting next month. RoboCop will be released on August 9, 2013.

Keaton joins previously announced Joel Kinnaman, Gary Oldman, Samuel L. Jackson and Abbie Cornish in the Jose Padilha-directed film.

“Michael is the final addition to the amazing cast we have assembled for this film and it is so great to have the last puzzle piece in place. It is thrilling that everything has come together to bring this innovative new vision of RoboCop to life. We’ve got a great script, a great cast, some killer ED-209’s and I can’t wait to get Alex Murphy back on the streets,” said Padilha.

Looks like Kinnaman in the suit, the suit looks like the RC-2000 picture from the website.. Now maybe it is a swat suit, and he dies in it and becomes RC, but I have a feeling that is what RC is going to look like..

So maybe in this iteration of RoboCop, his right hand stayed intact (like his face) and is just bionically connected to the suit?

then the RoboCop suit is an actual suit/exoskeleton in comparison to the "full body prosthesis" like in the original. I'm still running with human swat suit until we see a more polished product. To me this could border on Ryan Reynolds Green Lantern bad if it isn't done right.

Sony Pushes 'Robocop' to 2014, Moves 'Elysium' to Summer 2013 (http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/sony-pushes-robocop-2014-moves-379137)
by Pamela McClintock

Sony also dates "Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs" sequel and takes "Pixels" off the 2014 calendar.

Sony/TriStar is relocating Neill Blomkamp's Elysium -- the follow-up to the director's District 9 -- from March 1 to Aug. 9.

The sci-fi epic, set on a space station occupied by the very wealthy while the rest of humanity lives on a ravaged, overpopulated Earth, headlines Matt Damon, Jodie Foster and Sharlto Copley.

In its new summer home, Elysium opens on virtually the same weekend on which sleeper hit District 9 debuted in 2009 on its way to grossing $210 million worldwide.

Elysium takes the spot previously held by Robocop, which Sony and MGM are pushing back to Feb. 7, 2014. The remake, directed by Jose Padilha and starring Joel Kinnaman in the title role, is still in production, and the switch-up will allow more time for postproduction and visual effects, though that wasn't the reason for the move.

The studio also announced it will open Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2 on Sept. 27, roughly the same weekend that 3D toon Hotel Transylvania opened this year, transforming into a box-office hit for Sony Pictures Animation. Transylvania has grossed north of $151 million to date.

Separately, Sony is taking Happy Madison's Pixels off the 2014 calendar. The CGI/live-action hybrid, the feature version of a French short about the invasion of New York City by an 8-bit video game, is still in development.
