One thing is very clear about Len Wiseman's take on Total Recall: The man has no inclination whatsoever to capture the same sort of blue collar, gritty take on the future that dominated the world of Paul Verhoeven's original. Wiseman's version is an entirely glossier beast and - though it feels odd to say so given that the original starred Arnold Schwarzenegger - more action oriented.
A fresh TV spot for the Wiseman directed remake has just arrived and can be checked out below. Colin Farrell, Jessica Biel, Kate Beckinsale, Bryan Cranston, Bill Nighy and Ethan Hawke star.For a factory worker named Douglas Quaid, even though he's got a beautiful wife 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 as he finds himself on the run from the police.
