It's 2013 -- at least it will be when Joseph Padilha's RoboCop reboot is released -- so why wouldn't Murphy have a badass second ride?

Samuel L. Jackson, in his never-ending quest to be cast in almost every movie ever made, has joined Spike Lee's American remake of Oldboy. Jackson's role is described as "small, but critical" -- par for the course for Jackson -- and rumors abound that he will play the bodyguard of the lead character, played by Josh Brolin.

Oldboy begins filming this fall.
