Variety reports that ‘Weeds’ star Mary-Louise Parker is in talks to reunite with her ‘RED’ director Robert Schwentke for ‘R.I.P.D.’
The supernatural action comedy stars Ryan Reynolds as Nick Cruz, a cop killed in the line of duty who accepts a deal with the Rest in Peace Department to serve a hundred years of service in exchange for a chance to figure out who it was that murdered him. Jeff Bridges, Kevin Bacon and Stephanie Szostak will co-star.
Parker would be playing the head of Rest in Peace Department, a role previously linked to Jodie Foster. ‘R.I.P.D.’ was penned by Phil Hay and Matt Manfredi and adapted from Peter Lenkov’s Dark Horse comic of the same name.
