A little over a month ago the viral marketing website www.OmniCorp.com appeared on the net, promoting the forthcoming RoboCop remake directed by José Padilha by presenting itself as the website of the corporation seen in the RoboCop movies - OmniCorp/OCP.

Loading up the website will play a promotional video, which can also be viewed Here on YouTube, which shows footage of OCP Aerial Drones, the new design for ED-209, and brief glimpses of "Where human resources meets robotic engineering the RC-2000: the next generation in defensive products" - could this be the new design for RoboCop.

Unfortunately, many links on this viral website are locked out, displaying "Access Denied" when clicked, which will no doubt change over the forthcoming months as we approach the movies 9th August 2013 release date.

In additional news, Hugh Laurie is alleged to play the CEO of OmniCorp, joining other cast members Gary Oldman, Samuel L. Jackson, Abbie Cornish and of course Joel Kinnaman in his lead role as Alex Murphy/Robocop.

Thanks to Collider for the news!
