The full length trailer for Total Recall has hit the web. The 2012 movie update of the Arnold Schwarzenegger sci-fi actioner (which was based on the short story We Can Remember It For You Wholesale, written by Philip K. Dick) is directed by Len Wiseman (Underworld, Live Free or Die Hard) and stars Colin Farrell, Kate Beckinsale, Jessica Biel, and Bryan Cranston. The film promises to stay closer to the published source material than to the previous film.
"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 is set to hit theaters on August 3rd.
