Want to know more about the upcoming remake of Robocop? During a recent interview, star Joel Kinnaman talks about what to expect:

Via MTV: "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."

" 'RoboCop' is going to be a lot more human... The first movie is one of my favorite movies. I love it. Of course, 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."

Sony will release Robocop on August 9th, 2013. The film will be directed by Jose Padilha (Elite Squad) and is written by Nick Schenk (Gran Torino).
