RoboCop gets new release date

Last Updated on July 23, 2021

I always thought it was "YOUR move, creep!", but apparently it was ROBOCOP's move after all as the Jose Padilha-helmed redo has been bumped from its original February 7 2014 release to February 12. Perfect Valentine's Day weekend date movie, perhaps?

ROBOCOP stars Joel Kinnaman ("The Killing") as the title character, Gary Oldman (THE DARK KNIGHT RISES) as the scientist who creates the titular half-man/half-machine/all-cop, and Samuel L. Jackson (PULP FICTION) as media mogul Pat Novak.

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. 

Ok…NOW its your move, creep. Will you be seeing this ROBOCOP remake in February or is this one you'll be skipping entirely? Sound off below!
