While not a critical darling, R.I.P.D. 2: Rise of the Damned offered a thrilling follow-up to the 2013 film, albeit straight to video. This direct-to-DVD sequel brought back the supernatural police force with a fresh cast facing a new undead threat.Let’s delve into the actors who brought these characters to life:
Leading the Charge: Jeffrey Donovan as Roy Pulsipher
Stepping into the role previously held by Jeff Bridges, Jeffrey Donovan portrays Roy Pulsipher, a deceased sheriff thrust back into action by the R.I.P.D. Donovan, known for his tough-guy roles in shows like “Burn Notice” and “Fargo,” brings a gruff charm and a sense of seasoned authority to the character. We see Roy grappling with his new reality and the responsibility of stopping a demonic uprising.
A Rising Star: Penelope Mitchell as Jeanne
Penelope Mitchell takes on the role of Jeanne, Roy’s partner in the afterlife. New to the R.I.P.D., Jeanne possesses a strong moral compass and a knack for technology. Mitchell, who has starred in shows like “Hemlock Grove” and “The OA,” brings a youthful energy and a touch of vulnerability to the character. Her dynamic with Donovan as they learn to work together promises to be a highlight of the film.
Beyond the Leads:
While Donovan and Mitchell take center stage, the supporting cast adds depth and intrigue to the narrative:
- Rachel Adedeji: Adedeji’s character details are under wraps, but speculation suggests she might play a fellow R.I.P.D. officer or perhaps a human ally caught in the crossfire of the undead uprising.
- Jake Choi: Known for his comedic roles, Choi likely brings a touch of humor to the film, even amidst the supernatural mayhem. His character’s specific role remains a mystery.
- Richard Brake: Brake, known for his villainous portrayals in shows like “Game of Thrones” and “Peaky Blinders,” likely plays a formidable antagonist on the side of the demonic forces.
- Other Cast Members: The remaining cast likely includes actors portraying R.I.P.D. officials, demonic entities, and potentially even innocent bystanders caught in the supernatural battle.
From Big Screen to Home Video:
While lacking the star power of the original film with Jeff Bridges and Ryan Reynolds, the cast of R.I.P.D. 2 offers a solid foundation for this direct-to-DVD sequel. Donovan’s established acting career brings credibility to Roy Pulsipher’s character, while Mitchell’s rising star status adds a fresh face to the narrative. The presence of seasoned actors like Brake further elevates the film’s potential.
