The 'Robocop' remake is upon us, and whether you want it or not, you're getting it. Now more and more names are popping up to star in the film and Jay Baruchel is the latest who may be fighting crime with -- or against -- Detroit's half man/half-machine justice dealer.

As wrong as it feels that they're remaking 'RoboCop' (and it does feel sooo wrong), it's impossible to look at the cast that director Jose Padilha is building not be pretty impressed. In addition to Joel Kinnaman putting on the cybernetic implants, the film will feature Gary Oldman, Hugh Laurie, Samuel L. Jackson and now Jackie Earle Haley, who just can't seem to stop himself from getting attached

Although Jose Padilha's remake of the certified classic 'RoboCop' hasn't even started shooting, the viral marketing has begun! Although we're still waiting to see what star Joel Kinnaman will look like as a cybernetically enhanced, corporation-controlled police officer, a new website for the fictional OmniCorp company popped up that gives fans a look at a character almost as iconic as the titular

Most of the latest casting for the upcoming remake 'Robocop' has focused on the new characters, from Gary Oldman's creator, to Samuel L. Jackson's entertainment tycoon. Though we don't expect it to be a scene-for-scene remake, we're curious how much of it will reflect the original. There are some elements, as it seems that Hugh Laurie will be playing the head of OCP.

And the 'RoboCop' news just keeps coming. The film is picking up serious steam and looking to cast actress Abbie Cornish as the female lead.

Having worked at 'Jurassic Park,' having brought the team together in 'The Avengers' and having wielded a purple lightsaber in 'Star Wars,' it's only fitting that Samuel L. Jackson would add another science fiction/fantasy classic to his resume. Jackson is joining the remake of 'Robocop.'

Hollywood's latest remake that isn't necessary and makes us want to vomit cyborg feeding baby food is Paul Verhoven's 'Robocop,' the 1987 thriller which so perfectly used violence and dark humor that it's one of the greatest action films of all time. At least a worthy actor will be joining the remake being helmed by Jose Padilha.

We all got a good laugh last year when a few enterprising fans took to the internet with their idea to build a statue of RoboCop in the character's hometown of Detroit. (Philadelphia has a 'Rocky' statue, they argued.) The online campaign raised of $65,000 dollars but, as the Kickstarter page notes: "None of us have ever made a giant solid metal permanent sculpture before." So, yeah, it

Following last week's casting of 'The Killing''s Joel Kinnaman in the titular role of Robocop, the reboot of the 80s classic now has an official release date. So what date should you circle on your calendars?

MGM is making progress on their long-gestating remake of 'Robocop.' The film, which had visionary director Darren Aronofsky attached at one time, has found  new life under 'Elite Squad' director Jose Padilha. Now comes word that they may have found someone to fill the clunky metal shoes of Peter Weller...
