    Abbie Cornish In Talks to Join 'RoboCop'

    DateSun, June 10, 2012

    Abbie Cornish (Limitless, Sucker Punch) is in talks to join the Jose Padilha directed remake of Paul Veroheven's 1987 sci-fi classic, RoboCop.

    Cornish would play the thought-to-be widowed wife of cop-turned-RoboCop, Alex Murphy (to be played by Joel Kinnaman of AMC's The Killing).

    MGM has been putting this project on fast-track over the past few months as Gary Oldman recently joined the cast to play the scientist behind the development of RoboCop as well as Samuel L. Jackson who is reportedly playing a media mogul.

    Production is set to begin on the project this September in Toronto with a scheduled release date of August 9th, 2013.

    Expect more castings news on this project in the months ahead.
