Second Poster For ‘R.I.P.D.’ Released

Following the April debut of the film’s trailer, Universal Pictures has released the theatrical poster for their upcoming Action/Comedy/Sci-Fi, R.I.P.D. The movie is an adaptation of Peter Lenkov’s Dark Horse Comic, Rest In Peace Department, and is being touted as a more supernatural Men In Black.

I haven’t read the book myself, but to those of you who have, are you looking forward to the film? How does the movie’s look and feel compare to that of the comic?

In any case, check out the new poster below, and let us know what you think! R.I.P.D. hits theatres on July 19th!

Jeff Bridges and Ryan Reynolds headline the 3D supernatural action-adventure R.I.P.D. as two cops dispatched by the otherworldly Rest In Peace Department to protect and serve the living from an increasingly destructive array of souls who refuse to move peacefully to the other side.

Veteran sheriff Roy Pulsifer (Bridges) has spent his career with the legendary police force known as R.I.P.D. tracking monstrous spirits who are cleverly disguised as ordinary people.  His mission?  To arrest and bring to justice a special brand of criminals trying to escape final judgment by hiding among the unsuspecting on Earth.

Once the wise-cracking Roy is assigned former rising-star detective Nick Walker (Reynolds) as his junior officer, the new partners have to turn grudging respect into top-notch teamwork.  When they uncover a plot that could end life as we know it, two of R.I.P.D.’s finest must miraculously restore the cosmic balance…or watch the tunnel to the afterlife begin sending angry souls the very wrong way.
