Joel Kinnaman Has Few Juicy Bits To Say About ROBOCOP!

While the highly-anticipated reboot of ROBOCOP won't be hitting theaters until August 9, 2013, lead actor Joel Kinnaman has already spilled some beans about what we would be expecting for the upcoming movie. First, herevealed his ROBOCOP suit will be revamped with a new feature where we can see his eyes through a see-through visor. Here's what he had to say below.

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.

Interestingly enough, Kinnaman also pinpoint that the movie will be dealing with real science and the study of neurons in the body.

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.

Apart from that, Kinnaman has stated the violence will be toned down in the reboot, unlike the extremely violent version director Paul Verhoeven has depicted back in 1987. Yup, among them is the infamous bloody execution scene where Officer Alex Murphy is shot to death by a gang of ruthless criminals.

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.

That's not all! He finally revealed there will be a few tributes to the original ROBOCOP.

It's going to have a couple of throwbacks, but it's a re-imagination, man. This director is an amazing and wonderful guy. José Padilha is a wonderful director.

For now, I'm particularly curious about what Jose Padilha's decision to tweak the original ROBOCOP suit design. After all, he's one of the most iconic characters ever seen and it will be an uphill task for him to convince the die-hard fans as well as generating new fans to look forward for the new ROBOCOP movie.
