The 3D RoboCop reboot starring Joel Kinnaman joins The Amazing Spiderman 2 and others for a Sony/Screen Gems panel at San Diego Comic-Con in the biggest venue, Hall H, on Friday, July 19th.
Joel Kinnaman is the critically-wounded cop Alex Murphy who returns to the Detroit police force in 2028 as a powerful cyborg thanks to multi-national OmniCorp’s robot technology. This part-human part-robot police officer is the key to OmniCorp’s plan to sell robocops around the world and earn billions of dollars. But what happens when the man in the machine goes rogue in his pursuit of justice? Kinnaman will be joined on the panel by Abbie Cornish who plays his wife Ellen Murphy and Samuel L. Jackson who plays Pat Novak and director José Padilha. Panel: Friday July 19th – 4:05 p.m. – 6:15 p.m. in Hall H.

RoboCop filmed in Toronto and Detroit last year but reshoots were done in Vancouver this May to accomodate Kinnaman’s commitment to film season 3 of The Killing here. The movie is scheduled for release next year on February 7th.
