‘RoboCop’ is the Latest ’80s Classic to Get a Modern Trailer

Published

Remember when RoboCop was remade? Me neither.

Last week we shared with you a modernized trailer for 1979’s Alien that was inspired by the latest trailer for this year’s Alien: Covenant, and we mentioned how we always enjoy it when fans cut up classic movies and imagine what their trailers would be like if they were released in the present day. The man behind that Alien trailer, Ben Cannell, is back this week with another little gem.

Ben dropped his just-uploaded modern RoboCop trailer into our inbox this morning, and we wanted to share it with you guys. Running over two-minutes long, the modernized trailer is chock full of spoilers; in other words, Ben hit the “modern trailer” on the head with this one.

Check it out below, along with RoboCop‘s original trailer!

The sci-fi film takes place in a dystopic and crime-ridden Detroit where a terminally wounded cop (Peter Weller) returns to the force as a powerful cyborg haunted by submerged memories.

At one point known as ShiverTim Miller‘s (Deadpool, Terminator: Dark Fate) next movie doesn’t yet have a title, but star Keanu Reeves offers a very intriguing tease this week.

Chatting with Collider, Reeves explains what drew him to the mysterious upcoming project from director Tim Miller. He tells the outlet, “Sharks. Time machine. Groundhog Day.”

That lines up with early plot details that surfaced earlier this year, with the film said to center on a “smuggler in the middle of a deadly double-cross while on a job in the Caribbean Sea.”

That synopsis continued, “Surrounded by bodies, hostile mercenaries, and bloodthirsty sharks, the man finds himself in a time loop and scrambling to break the cycle.”

Callie Cooke (“The Stranger”), Stefan Kapičić (Deadpool), Steven Waddington (Sleepy Hollow), Nicholas Duvernay (“The White Lotus”), Abraham Popoola (Cruella), Anastasia Safonov, and Bobby Holland Hanton (Thor: Love and Thunder) also star.

Ian Shorr (SplinterInfinite) penned the screenplay for the sci-fi thriller, which had previously been described as having shades of Edge of Tomorrow and The Shallows.

Stay tuned for more on the untitled Warner Bros. project.
