Abbie Cornish:<\/strong> “RoboCop” for me was a very nostalgic film from my childhood. I grew up with brothers so we had it on VHS, and we watched that VHS until it shredded itself and it couldn’t be watched anymore. So when I heard that “RoboCop” was being remade, I instantly was interested. And then when I heard that Jos\u00e9 Padilha was directing it, I had a Jos\u00e9 Padilha movie marathon night, where I watched “Elite Squad,” “Elite Squad 2” and\u00a0“Bus 174” and emailed [him] after that. It was an amazing night. I was still up when the sun came up [and]\u00a0I thought this was an incredibly talented director who it would be an honor to work with. And then I heard that Gary Oldman, who I’ve respected and admired forever, was involved, and Michael Keaton, and then I heard that Joel Kinnaman was playing RoboCop, and I thought that was great casting. And Samuel L. Jackson, too. To be honest, this film for me is the most fun I’ve ever had on a film, and I’ve learned the most too. I was really lucky in regards to the fact that I had time off, because I sort of had to fly back and forth. There were moments on set where I’d wrap and rather than go back to the hotel, I would sit and stay on set. Jos\u00e9 was really lovely, letting me sit behind him, and I learned a lot watching him direct. And Gary and Michael Keaton were lovely, too —\u00a0they let me hang around and watch them do a scene together too. To me it was a massive learning [experience], and it was really enjoyable. I think Jos\u00e9 has made an incredible film with “RoboCop.” It’s a great remake. I think it holds its own.<\/p>\n
