While speaking on Brazilian TV channel Globo 1, the Elite Squad director said that he plans on talking to the critically-acclaimed Shame actor once casting gets underway.
"I can't talk yet, it's too early to speak, but there are some actors I like," Padhila revealed, as translated by Bleeding Cool. "I really like [Michael] Fassbender. I'd like to talk to him - I'll take to him.
"There's a possibility, and there's a lot of other great actors that would play RoboCop."
The director recently insisted that now was the right time to remake Paul Verhoeven's 1987 sci-fi original.
Padhila also confirmed that filming on the project will commence in Detroit, Michigan in early 2012.
