Actors Jeff Bridges and Ryan Reynolds spent some quality time with their body doubles on the set of “R.I.P.D.’’ this week. Bridges’s twin is his longtime body double Loyd Callett, while Reynolds’s double is local guy Chris Whitney, who tends bar at Lolita in the Back Bay and also worked as the actor’s stand-in on “The Proposal,’’ which was filmed in Gloucester. Victoria’s Secret model Marisa Miller was expected on the “R.I.P.D.’’ set yesterday. We’re hoping to start seeing costar Mary-Louise Parker around town, too.
