Just as Warner Bros.' Batman franchise is flying high once again, MGM is hoping to reboot one of its action tentploles.

According to Variety, the studio is fast-tracking a new Robocop picture for a 2010 release, with Darren Aaronofsky ( Requiem for a Dream, The Fountain) directing a script written by David Self. The original film, which debuted in 1987 and spawned two sequels, focused on a fatally wounded cop who returns to the force in cyborg form.

The studio is mum on the details, but some have suggested the new film will take a noir approach. What do you think? Are your excited for more "part man, part machine, all cop" action? - Adam Bryant
