Universal Pictures has tapped Robert Schwentke (“Red”) to direct Ryan Reynolds in the supernatural thriller R.I.P.D. based on the Dark Horse comic by Peter Lenkov.
Ryan Reynolds signed last spring to star in “R.I.P.D.,” centered on two officers — one recently dead and one who’s been dead for hundreds of years. The team of Phil Hay & Matt Manfredi is writing the screenplay.
