Ryan Reynolds is going to die. It’s a fact of life that we all need to be prepared for. I feel like you’re at an age where you’re mature enough to handle that news. I’m talking about in the movies only of course. The real Ryan Reynolds will never die. He will be around forever. You hear me God?

Producer Neal Moritz announced that Reynolds will follow Change-Up with a starring role in the upcoming adaptation of the graphic novel R.I.P.D.. In the film, he will play a recently-deceased cop who joins the Rest In Peace Department – which is the police department for the dead, naturally. Reynold’s dead partner in the buddy cop film is described as a gunslinger who’s been dead for hundreds of years. I take that to mean he wasn’t that good of a gunslinger. (Collider)
