RoboCop 2


 

RoboCop 2 is a satirical science fiction film, released in 1990 and set in the near future in a dystopian metropolitan Detroit, Michigan. It is the sequel to the 1987 film RoboCop. The title character is played by Peter Weller, who also played RoboCop in the first film. However, although a second sequel and a television series were made, this was the last time Weller played the role, due to complaints of how cumbersome and exhausting it was to wear the suit.

Trivia

It may be the only sequel where the title of the film is actually mentioned by a character in the film, IE, when The Old Man (Daniel O'Herlihy) introduces the cyborg of the title at a corporate meeting.
