Len Wiseman’s upcoming remake of Total Recall is set to be one of the summer’s big blockbusters, after the superhero likes of The Amazing Spider-Man and The Dark Knight Rises in July, with Colin Farrell taking the lead that Arnie took just over twenty years ago.
We caught the first trailer last month, and now five new images have made their way online.
Wiseman (Underworld) has assembled a pretty awesome cast, with Farrell supported by the likes of Kate Beckinsale (Wiseman’s real-life wife), Jessica Biel, Bryan Cranston, Bill Nighy, John Cho, and Ethan Hawke.
“Total Recall is an action thriller about reality and memory, inspired anew by the famous short story “We Can Remember It For You Wholesale” by Philip K. Dick. Welcome to Rekall, the company that can turn your dreams into real memories. For a factory worker named Douglas Quaid (Colin Farrell), even though he’s got a beautiful wife (Kate Beckinsale) who he loves, the mind-trip sounds like the perfect vacation from his frustrating life – real memories of life as a super-spy might be just what he needs. But when the procedure goes horribly wrong, Quaid becomes a hunted man. Finding himself on the run from the police – controlled by Chancellor Cohaagen (Bryan Cranston), the leader of the free world – Quaid teams up with a rebel fighter (Jessica Biel) to find the head of the underground resistance (Bill Nighy) and stop Cohaagen. The line between fantasy and reality gets blurred and the fate of his world hangs in the balance as Quaid discovers his true identity, his true love, and his true fate.”
Total Recall will be released in the US on 3rd August, before coming over to the UK a few weeks later for a 22nd August release. To catch up on all we’ve seen from the film, just click here. And as usual with these new images, you can click to enlarge.
