Neil Blomkamp will direct Robocop 1987 sequel "Robocop Returns"

The Future of Law Enforcement is in good hands, as Deadline reports that District 9 director Neil Blomkamp is set to direct a new Robocop film that follows on the 1987 original and overwrites the two sequels that followed - with the title of the upcoming movie called "Robocop Returns"!

Blomkamp will be joined by original Robocop writers Ed Neumeier and Michael Miner, with rewrites being done by Masters of the Universe writer Justin Rhodes. No release date has been given for the project - but its safe to assume it'll probably be released in the next few years.

After seeing the very first trailer of the movie released the past week, the filmmakers have graced the world with a slick theatrical poster that shows that while different, the new version of Robocop means business, and he's surely going to be taking names.
