New Robocop TV spot advises you to drive sober

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Looks like MGM is already hyping up their ROBOCOP remake on television, as the first commercial for the remake has hit the tube… and the net. This one’s a bit cheeky, as it functions partly as a warning against drunk driving during the holiday. Don’t want Robocop serving you a DUI, now do you?

There isn’t much in the way of new footage to be found, but it’s an interesting ad nonetheless. Peep it below.

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.

ROBOCOP stars Joel Kinnaman, Gary Oldman, Michael Keaton, Abbie Cornish, Jackie Earle Haley, Michael K. Williams, Jennifer Ehle, Jay Baruchel, Marianne Jean-Baptiste and Samuel L. Jackson. It opens February 7th.
