Neil Blomcamp hints at Peter Weller's return to Robocop
The new version of the fantastic action movie "Robocop", which is going to be presented to the audience by director Neil Blomkamp, may star the leading role in the original movie, Peter Weller. This is hinted at by the director's post on Twitter. When asked by a fan about who could play the role of police officer Alex Murphy, turned into a cyborg by OCP, Blomkamp replied: "Peter Weller." Whether this is an official recognition of the fact that the actor will be involved in the project, or the director thus noted Weller's indispensability, is still unclear. At the time of this posting, no official announcements have been made regarding the casting. The next remake will be produced by the screenwriters of the original 1987 movie Edward Neumeier and Michael Miner. Their ideas, which were supposed to form the basis for the continuation of the cult project of Paul Verhoeven, but were never used, will find application in the new movie. The terms of work and the possible rental schedule of "Robocop" were not specified. Recall that in 2014, an attempt was made to reboot the franchise, but it was unsuccessful: the movie grossed only $ 240 million.
