Ο πρωταγωνιστής του επερχόμενου reboot της πασίγνωστης ομώνυμης ταινίας των 80's (μία απ΄τις πιο αγαπημένες μου εκείνης της εποχής), Joel Kinnaman (όσοι βλέπουμε τη σειρά The Killing τον γνωρίζουμε ήδη, αλλά τον είδαμε και στο The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo σε έναν... 24ο ρόλο που δεν πρέπει να είχε καν ατάκα:p) μίλησε για την πολυαναμενόμενη ταινία:
"RoboCop is going to be a lot more human. The first movie is one of my favorite movies. I love it. Of course, Paul Verhoeven has that very special tone, and it's not going to have that tone. It's a re-imagination of it. There's a lot of stuff from the original. There are some details and throwbacks, but this version is a much better acting piece, for Alex Murphy and especially when he is RoboCop. It's much more challenging. It's not going to be jaw action. They're still working on the suit and how it's going to look, but the visor is going to be see-through. You're going to see his eyes."
"There's a lot of neuroscience now raising the question, 'Is all the intelligence in the human body in the brain?' and they're finding out that, no, it's not like that. The body has intelligence itself, and we're much more of an organic creature in that way. It's not a control tower that does everything."
"Yeah. It's going to be different. But it's very good. I was looking to do a big movie and to show that I can carry a big movie, and I couldn't be happier that this is going to be one of those big movies, a blockbuster, but that is also a real movie. A movie-movie. It's going to have a political satire to it too. I'm super stoked. Especially with this director. José Padilha is a badass. He's the real deal."
"I sincerely hope they’re going for R ‘cause I can’t imagine how RoboCop could be PG-13. That would be a huge mistake. If I have any say in it, I will fight very hard for it. It has to be violent."
Προσωπικά οι αλλαγές δεν με χαλάνε. Καλοδεχούμενες είναι (ειδικά σε reboot είναι και απαραίτητες, διαφορετικά δεν έχουν λόγο ύπαρξης), αρκεί να γίνονται προς τη σωστή κατεύθυνση. Δεν με πειράζει να δω έναν Robocop με διαφορετικό παρουσιαστικό, ούτε να φαίνονται τα μάτια του (λογικά δεν θα φαίνονται όπως στην φωτογραφία που έφτιαξα για την ανάρτηση:p)... αρκεί η νέα εικόνα του να μην είναι παιδική (όχι ότι περιμένω να δω κάτι τέτοιο απ΄τον σκηνοθέτη του Tropa de Elite). Δεν με ενοχλεί ούτε ο σχετικά άγνωστος πρωταγωνιστής... Και ο Peter Weller άγνωστος πρέπει να'ταν όταν τον επέλεξαν για την πρωτότυπη ταινία και μάλλον είναι καλύτερα έτσι (τώρα αν ο συγκεκριμένος είναι κατάλληλος για τον ρόλο - θα το δείξει η νεκροψία)... Επίσης δεν με πειράζει να μην έχει τρελή δράση... το μόνο που με ανησυχεί και που φοβάμαι είναι ότι το στούντιο δεν θα αφήσει τον σκηνοθέτη να γυρίσει μια rated-R ταινία (όπως αρμόζει στον συγκεκριμένο ήρωα δηλαδή)... Αυτό θα'ναι το πραγματικό FAIL.
Τα γυρίσματα θα ξεκινήσουν το καλοκαίρι και η πρεμιέρα είναι προγραμματισμένη για τις 9 Αυγούστου 2013 (για την Αμερική βέβαια). Μέχρι να βγει κάνα teaser/trailer έχουμε πολύ καιρό ακόμα... οπότε για την ώρα ας ξαναδούμε το παλιό:
