Dumb and Dumber To won’t be the only major studio comedy sequel to arrive this November as a Horrible Bosses follow-up will be making its way to screens, and much sooner than two decades later. Released in 2011, Seth Gordon‘s comedy was, along with Bridesmaids, the surprise hit of the summer, taking in over $200 million worldwide. While he’s out of the director’s chair for the sequel, Sex Drive and That’s My Boy helmer Sean Anders fills in, and the first teaser has now dropped.
Featuring the return of Jason Bateman, Charlie Day, Jason Sudeikis, Jamie Foxx, Jennifer Aniston, and Kevin Spacey, the newcomers are Christoph Waltz and Chris Pine, although they are barely hinted at in this preview. One also won’t be privy to much of the plot, which follows the trio forming their own business, only to start looking for revenge after getting swindled. Check out the teaser below and if you liked the first one, it doesn’t look like the formula is changing much this time around.
Fed up with answering to higher-ups, Nick (Bateman), Dale (Day) and Kurt (Sudeikis) decide to become their own bosses by launching their own business in “Horrible Bosses 2.” But a slick investor soon pulls the rug out from under them. Outplayed and desperate, and with no legal recourse, the three would-be entrepreneurs hatch a misguided plan to kidnap the investor’s adult son and ransom him to regain control of their company.
Horrible Bosses 2 opens on November 26th, 2014.
