Horrible Bosses back for sequel

Jason Bateman, Charlie Day and Jason Sudeikis are set to reunite for a follow-up to Horrible Bosses after the screenwriters agreed to pen a sequel, according to a report.

The movie, which centers on the trio's attempts to exact revenge on its mean employers, played by Jennifer Aniston, Colin Farrell and Kevin Spacey, was a summer hit last year (11), grossing $209 million at the worldwide box office.

Now the movie's writers, John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein, have signed a deal to create a follow-up - and the male leads are expected to star in the sequel, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
