The 2012 Total Recall movie is a remake of the original, which starred Arnold Schwarzenegger and was released back in 1990. The original film debuted at No.1 at the box office, grossing an impressive $261,299,840 worldwide. This remake aims to capture the essence of the original while introducing modern elements and a fresh cast to appeal to both new audiences and fans of the original.
Total Recall 2012 will be arriving in theatres on August 3rd and is directed by Len Wiseman, known for his work on the Underworld series.

The film explores themes of identity, memory, and reality, set against a backdrop of a dystopian future where the Earth is divided into two superpowers: the United Federation of Britain and The Colony.
