Posted to ComingSoon.net, the pictures feature Kinnaman sporting an all-black suit and visor helmet.
Unlike the original RoboCop, whose chrome-and-black armor suggested something that was part-man, part-carburator, the new suit is a more anatomically-inspired and streamlined design, more exo-skeleton than cyborg.
It recalls certain examples of superhero outerwear -- more specifically, those worn by Batman in Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy.
RoboCop is due in theaters Aug. 13, 2013.
