Ryan Reynolds really is becoming the go-to guy for heroic roles these days – hard to believe he first came to our attention with the decidedly unheroic Van Wilder .
Collider report that the actor has signed on to star in the film adap of graphic novel R.I.P.D . (Rest In Peace Department).
As well as R.I.P.D ., Moritz will be working with Reynolds on director David Dobkin’s comedy The Change-Up , which he says is “definitely R-rated”.
What’s it about?
“Jason Bateman and Ryan Reynolds basically end up switching bodies,” says Moritz. “And it’s a really funny high concept comedy directed by David Dobkin obviously who did Wedding Crashers . And written by Lucas Moore who wrote Hangover .”
Lensing on that flick is to start in October, though Moritz notes that R.I.P.D. is the one that really has Reynolds stoked.
Think Reynolds is as perfect for this as we do?
