Darren Aronofsky might not be the one to surge some life into this possible reboot of Robocop. For a little while now, Robocop has become one of many 80s cult movies to get the remake status, which is bad for most people who adore the movies. In this case though, it’s not just a mere matter of trying to find the right actor to play John Murphy before and after he’s made into a cyborg, but MGM who needs to find a director to hold onto.

Could this remake potentially go ED-209 and rip it to shreds?

Aronofsky has another project in development, which is the Natalie Portman starring film Black Swan. Although this film will most likely be filmed and readied up for sometime say around 2011, MGM also wants Robocop to be released within that same year. Meaning, he’s going to have to quickly jump from one piece to another lickety split. With the probability that Darren will be able to tackle both of these films seemingly low, MGM already is keeping their eyes out for possible replacement directors to fill the void of the action drama. Who will it be? Who do you think it should be? Do you think they should bother touching Robocop at all? Let us know, we want to hear your two cents on the topic.
