2014's Robocop reboot kept Alex Murphy's right hand as part of his cybernetic body, and a deleted scene explained why that decision was made.

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT 2014's Robocop reboot originally included a scene that would have explained why Alex Murphy still has one of his human hands. The modern update of Robocop follows a similar set-up as the 1987 original, with Detroit cop Alex Murphy being nearly killed only to be given a new life as the cybernetic law enforcement officer Robocop.

A major criticism directed at the Robocop reboot was the decision for the movie to be released with a PG-13 rating, which eliminated much of the over-the-top violence that played into the original Robocop movie franchise and its critiquing of '80s Reaganism and American culture. One particularly emblematic element of this was seen in Alex still having his human right hand after becoming Robocop, with Alex's right hand being graphically blown off in the original Robocop.

A Deleted Scene Explains Alex's Human Hand In 2014's Robocop In the deleted Robocop scene in question, Omnicorp scientist Dennett Norton , who is overseeing the Robocop project, explains that Alex Murphy's "body is beyond repair, but his brain is completely intact and functioning", making him a suitable candidate to become Robocop.

How Robocop's Deleted Scene Would Have Helped Explain Alex's Character Sellars sees Robocop as a tool of public relations as much as law enforcement, so it makes sense that he would prioritize Robocop's handshake as a means to that end. By keeping Murphy's right hand in place, Sellars and Omnicorp hope to ease Americans into the idea of machines becoming a key component of policing.

Apart from his face, brain, and organs, Murphy's right hand is the only part of his old body that he still has left, and the deleted scene discussing keeping his hand shows how divergent Omnicorp's agenda is from Murphy's perspective. To Omnicorp, Murphy's hand is nothing more than a marketing tool, but to him, it's a way to remember that he is still human, even if he now occupies a metal body.
