First Pic of Joel Kinnaman As RoboCop From Set of New Film
Here’s the first pics of RoboCop from the set of the new reboot, which is filming now. Joel Kinnaman is playing Alex Murphy / Robocop. You can read an interview with the actor at Collider here to learn some details about the film.
What do you think of the suit? Is it a fresh update to the classic look, or is it too modern? Let us know in the comments!
Hard to see any contrast in the suit, any midnight blue or grey tones? It’s streamlined but kind of bland. I’m guessing what the suit DOES will make up for that in the action, but it looks more like a wet-suit than a kick ass RoboCop suit… but LOVE JOEL KINNAMAN!
I’ve never seen Kinnaman in anything yet, but I have a feeling he’ll do a good job. The suit appears to be all black, which to me gives it more of a SWAT feel than regular police. I’m sure it will be much more modern as well, for instance I doubt you’ll hear robotic noises when he’s walking etc., and from what I read in an interview in the film he’ll be able to run up to 100 mph.
The suit itself looks pretty cool, but I can’t seem to shake the idea in my mind that RoboCop needs to be decked in gleaming silver.
I hear you, cause that’s what we grew up with. The old RoboCop looks like he’s operating on hydraulics and shit, this one looks like he walked out of Deus Ex, but they’re both cool.
Yeah man! Make him bleed motor oil!
