Today, Prime Video officially announced it has greenlit a RoboCop reboot TV series. The series was first rumored back in 2024 for the streaming platform. The series will be showrun by Peter Ocko (Lodge 49) and produced by James Wan under the Blumehouse/Atomic Monster production banner.
“I’ve been a massive fan of Robocop forever, so getting to help bring this world to television is a dream. What Paul Verhoeven created in 1987 was decades ahead of its time, and its questions about technology, identity, and who corporations really serve have only grown more urgent. With Peter’s distinctive vision and bold approach to storytelling, and alongside Ed and our partners at Amazon MGM Studios, we’re working to honor what made the original iconic and highlight its relevancy in this modern, tech-driven world, while building something unmistakably new for a global audience.” – James Wan.
This will be the second reboot of the character after the original 1987 film and the 2014 reboot film starring Joel Kinnaman.
