MUMBAI: Make way for the Ultimate Shiny reboot of the classic, future-shocker with Joel Kinnaman as the critically wounded Detroit detective who is rebuilt by the global OmniCorp as a crime-fighting cyborg. Experience an enthralling evening of action packed entertainment as SONY PIX premiers the legendary ‘Robocop’ airing Sunday, 19th October at 1 PM and 9 PM with a simulcast on AXN.
 
Witness the cult classic in a new age futuristic film packed with special effects and robot technology. Set in the year 2028, director José Padilha’s Robocop, revolves around a world where mega-multinational OmniCorp headed by ruthless CEO Raymond Sellars (Michael Keaton) has become the US military’s major contractor. Over in the Middle East, its soldier drones and heavy artillery units are helping to enforce the peace. Back home, its advanced robotics department is helping injured soldiers to walk again. But despite their best efforts, there’s one area of business they haven’t yet cracked… securing America’s own streets.
 
With US citizens unwilling to accept a police force made up of faceless robots, Sellars devises an audacious solution to fuse a real cop with an artificial body. Enter Alex Murphy (Joel Kinnaman), a principled young detective left mortally wounded after a brutal assassination attempt. OmniCorp sees their chance to build a part-man, part-robot police officer but despite OmniCorp’s attempts to control their new ‘product, Murphy isn’t quite ready to play the puppet. Just like the original, the struggle between man and machine forms the backbone of this futuristic action packed film.
 
 
So do not miss out on non-stop action, premiering 19th Oct, 1 PM and 9 PM on SONY PIX and AXN
