Ryan Reynolds and Bradley Cooper to star in buddy cop movie

According to The Risky Business blog, Ryan Reynolds and Bradley Cooper are set to team up for a new buddy cop comedy to be written by Sheldon Turner, the guy who wrote the fantastic Up In The Air.

The blog says that the story “follows two friends, who are also San Francisco cops, whose fathers were once partners on the police force. The older generation is forced out of retirement to help their sons crack a case, with typically antagonistic results.”

No word on who will play the two fathers in the film as yet, but it all sounds quite exciting.

Neal Moritz, Andrew Panay and Jonathon Komack Martin will produce with J.C. Spink and Chris Bender.

The pitch has been around for around five years, and was previously known as Blowback. The word is that the name has been dropped and is currently untitled.

More news as and when we get it.
