With director Len Wiseman's Total Recall reboot less than a month away, a new clip has popped up online. Unfortunately, the clip just rehashes the same extended action sequence we've seen in the trailer. Colin Farrell stars as Douglas Quaid, a man who is bored with his life and seeks to have adventurous memories implanted in his brain. In the clip, we watch as Farrell's plans go awry and he goes all Jason Bourne on a number of faceless federal police. It's much less sexy than Farrell vs co-star Kate Beckinsale, which we saw in this earlier clip. The only thing tempting me to see the movie at this point is some Beckinsale vs Jessica Biel action. Total Recall, also starring Bill Nighy, John Cho and Bryan Cranston, debuts August 3rd. Hit the jump to watch the new(ish) clip.Check out the clip from Yahoo!

Official synopsis:
Total Recall is an action thriller about reality and memory, inspired anew by the famous short story âWe Can Remember It For You Wholesaleâ by Philip K. Dick. Welcome to Rekall, the company that can turn your dreams into real memories. For a factory worker named Douglas Quaid (Colin Farrell), even though heâs got a beautiful wife (Kate Beckinsale) who he loves, the mind-trip sounds like the perfect vacation from his frustrating life â real memories of life as a super-spy might be just what he needs. But when the procedure goes horribly wrong, Quaid becomes a hunted man. Finding himself on the run from the police â controlled by Chancellor Cohaagen (Bryan Cranston), the leader of the free world â Quaid teams up with a rebel fighter (Jessica Biel) to find the head of the underground resistance (Bill Nighy) and stop Cohaagen. The line between fantasy and reality gets blurred and the fate of his world hangs in the balance as Quaid discovers his true identity, his true love, and his true fate.
