Len Wiseman (Underworld, Live Free or Die Hard) is directing the Total Recall remake with his out-of-his-league hot wife Kate Beckinsale starring alongside Colin Farrell (replacing Schwarzenegger with a slightly-more discernible accent) and Bryan Cranston as the villain. It’s no longer set on Mars because they’re spending all their budget on the three-boobed hooker instead. So what’s the new, Mars-free plot? Start my reactor, THR:
The new story involves nation states Euromerica and New Shanghai, with Douglas Quaid (Farrell) a factory worker in the latter who begins to believe he is a spy, although he doesn’t know for which side. Cranston would play Vilos Cohaagen, the leader of Euromerica who, under the cover of protecting his people, is secretly readying an invasion of New Shanghai.
So that’s . . . something. Below we have some photos and videos taken on the Toronto set showing the police hover cars and Colin Farrell riding on one of them. We also have some relevant photos of Kate Beckensale because we like to class up this joint.

It’s a video of Kate Beckinsale and Colin Farrell in the same place at the same time. For like two seconds. Shut. Down. Everything.
