Zach Galifianakis has dropped out of the supernatural buddy action/comedy R.I.P.D. says Deadline.
Ryan Reynolds stars as a young cop murdered in the line of duty who agrees to enlist in the 'Rest In Peace Department', a police force of ghosts, for the chance to catch his killer. The action follows a regular day in the life while on the beat
Galifianakis would have played Ryan's partner a gunslinger who himself has been dead since the 1800s. Due to his exit on R.I.P.D Another film he's attached to, the Jay Roach-directed political comedy "Southern Rivals," will move forward.
Robert Schwentke ("Flightplan" Red) is still supposed to direct the film from a script by Phil Hay and Matt Manfredi.
Neal Moritz will produce the film that takes it's cues from comic by Peter Lenkov
Unless quickly recast a Summer shoot seems unlikely due to Reynolds' packed work load
