To celebrate the Home Entertainment release of Studiocanal’s ROBOCOP, which arrives on Blu-ray™, DVD on 9th June 2014, we’ve got a great exclusive clip that takes behind-the-scenes ‘To Serve and Protect’ of the action-thriller!
Directed by José Padilha (Elite Squad), ROBOCOP is a re-imagining of Paul Verhoeven’s 1987 classic, in which a critically injured cop is transformed into a part-man, part-robot police officer designed to rid Detroit of crime.
The year is 2028 and multinational conglomerate OmniCorp is at the centre of robot technology. With robotic drones winning American wars around the globe, they feel ready to translate this technology to the home front. When loving husband, father and skilled cop Alex Murphy (Joel Kinnaman – Easy Money, TV’s The Killing) is critically injured in the line of duty, OmniCorp – headed by CEO Raymond Sellars (Michael Keaton – Batman, Need For Speed) – utilises its remarkable science of robotics to save his life. Returning to the streets of Detroit equipped with amazing new abilities, Murphy must deal with issues a regular man has never had to face before.
Kinnaman and Keaton are joined by the ever-brilliant Gary Oldman as the compromised scientist Dr. Dennett Norton, Samuel L Jackson as TV presenter Pat Novak and Abbie Cornish as Murphy’s wife Clara.
Check out the clip below:
ROBOCOP is released on Limited Edition Blu-Ray Steelbook, Blu-Ray, DVD & EST from 9th June 2014.
