Anyone want to see Tom Cruise or Keanu Reeves as ROBOCOP?

[Mr 9.8]

I'm hoping this ends up being a sick joke, but knowing Hollyweird.

 

Who Might Be Robocop?

It might add up to very little in the long run, but MGM are said to be currently very keen to net a big star for their Robocop reboot. If true, this suggests a budget, and maybe a mainstream skewing for the project. Discouraging?

 

The three names set on top of the list are apparently Johnny Depp, Tom Cruise and Keanu Reeves. This is according to Moviehole, who don’t really leave a clue as to where the info came from. They’re nice guys at Moviehole, though, and I don’t want to be disbelieving.

On the topic of Who could be the new robo, my vote is for Burn notice's very own

Jeffrey Donovan.

I think Keanu Reeves would be perfect for a robotic voiced character whose face is half obscured.

NO

[Ares]

None.

RoboCop is about the robot aspect. you put Cruise or Depp and he will spend most of the movie out of mask talking about his emotions

I thought Kanunu was doing another Bill and Ted movie.

 

Or did I just make that up?

[Gatsby77]

Agreed. Jeffrey Donovan would be good. Not sure that Cruise has the vocal chops for it. And Depp's voice is just--wrong.

 

I think Keanu's would be a solid choice, too. I, for one, would pay $11 to hear Keanu-cop say "Whoa."

 

But really, I'd prefer to see them cast either Lawrence Fishburn or Michael Jai White and make this Deathlok, instead.

I also heard he was doing another Bill and Ted.

 

Besides, if it was Reeves, who wants to hear a robotic "No way" through out the movie. Wait a minute.... thats most Reeves movies

Keanu Reeves makes sense. The others, not so much.

 

Keanu is a big name and a borderline horrible actor. He would only need to do a few scenes as human cop before being transformed in to Robocop. Then, sounding like a machine that can't act worth a damn is perfect.

 

He gets my vote.

 

[Ringfinger]

No.

Get a new guy!
