Kevin Bacon is in talks to join Ryan Reynolds in Universal's adaptation of the Dark Horse comic "R.I.P.D."
According to The Hollywood Reporter, German director Robert Schwentke is directing.
The supernatural action comedy is being produced by Neil H. Moritz, Mike Richardson, Ryan Reynolds and Jonathon Komack Martin.
Phil Hay and Matt Manfredi wrote the script based on Peter Lenkov's comic.
