I recently spoke with Weller about the legacy and politics of “RoboCop,” his long career, turn as a Renaissance man, the importance of jazz and his friendship with Miles Davis.

Beyond his iconic role in Verhoeven’s two “RoboCop” films, Peter Weller has appeared in dozens of films and TV shows, including the cult classics “The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension!”

Weller has also directed TV shows, including FX’s “Sons of Anarchy.”

Paul Weller and Bruce Foxton of the Jam mourn drummer Rick Buckler, who died Monday at 69 after a short illness.

‘We went far beyond our dreams,’ Weller writes.
