Horrible Bosses was hilarious. It not only had the perk of being exceptionally funny
(the cocaine scene in the kitchen still kills me) but with comedic talents like
Jason Sudeikis, Jason Bateman, and Charlie Day the film was a recipe for success. An extremely hot Jennifer Aniston didn’t hurt
either.
Well unfortunately for the cast, original director Seth
Gordon will not helm the sequel LIKE A
BOSS. “Deadline” reports that Green has
dropped out of Horrible Bosses 2.
Representatives for New Line Cinema site the ubiquitous “scheduling
conflicts” excuse as the reason for the departure. “Scheduling conflicts” has become as cliché
as “It is what it is.” And to be frank I
have to call bullshit on this one. As
Alex Maidy points out, why the hell would you leave a sequel whose original
film grossed over $100 million to direct a sitcom? (Gordon has “The Goldbergs” coming out this
Fall.) Plus with his recent hit Identity
Thief, Green is definitely riding a hot streak.
It just doesn’t make sense to me.
Horrible Bosses 2 hits theaters sometime in 2014.
