Details On Jay Baruchel’s Role In ‘Robocop’ Emerge As He Nears A Deal

Jay Baruchel (She’s Out Of My League, Goon) is nearing a deal to join the cast of Robocop. He is one of the last major players to join the upcoming remake of the 1987 sci-fi flick. The film begins shooting this September with Joel Kinnaman, Hugh Laurie, Samuel L. Jackson, Gary Oldman, Abbie Cornish and Jackie Earle Haley already in the cast.

Baruchel will play the head of marketing for Omnicorp, the company that is building the police cyborg. While best known for his roles in comedic movies it is definitely not his first non-comedic role. So far this film is off to a really good start.
