Marijuana empress Nancy Botwin has turned herself over to the fuzz: Weeds star Mary-Louise Parker is in negotiations to join the cast of R.I.P.D. , a film based on Peter Lenkov’s graphic novel that chronicles “a cop killed in the line of duty (Ryan Reynolds) who is recruited by a team of undead police officers working for the Rest in Peace Department.” She’ll a play woman who oversees the division. Kevin Bacon , Stephanie Szostak, and Jeff Bridges — a dude who single-handedly doubles this movie’s marijuana cred — co-star. What other pot icons will director Robert Schwentke (Schwentke!) cast next? I vote for Cheech Marin as the voice of a talking K9. [ Variety ]
