‘R.I.P.D.’ films in the Financial District

The cast and crew of “R.I.P.D.’’ filmed on Batterymarch Street in the Financial District over the weekend. Spotted on set were the movie’s villain, Kevin Bacon, and actress Stephanie Szostak, who plays the wife of the film’s hero, Ryan Reynolds. Bacon wore one of those crazy-looking CGI suits while Szostak (or her body double - we can’t tell) hung upside down from a crane. We keep getting questions about the film’s title. For the record, “R.I.P.D.’’ stands for “Rest In Peace Department.’’
