Anistion, Bateman And Day For Horrible Bosses – Plus, Jennifer’s got Wanderlust too

12th May 2010 By Tim Isaac

As mentioned in the report about Colin Farrell and Marion Cotillard joining David Cronenberg’s Cosmopolis, Deadline is reporting that Farrell is also eyeing a role in the Seth Gordon comedy Horrible Bosses, for New Line.

Well, it turns out he’s not the only one being courted for the film, as THR reports that Jennifer Aniston, Jason Bateman and It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia actor Charlie Day are all in talks to join the comedy as well. Bateman and Day are in line to play the put upon employees of three, well, horrible bosses, inlcuding a master manipulator, a sexually aggressive dentist and a weaselly scion. The underlings get so fed up that they decided the only way to solve the problem is to kill one another’s bosses. Aniston and Farrell are in line to play two of those bosses, with New Line hoping to find another major name to play the third.

Horrible Bosses has actually been around for years, and in the past it’s attracted interest from the likes of Owen Wilson, Vince Vaughn, Ashton Kutcher Matthew McCounaghey and Dax Shepherd, while David Dobkin, Frank Oz and Roger Kumble have all flirted with the director’s chair. However none of those attempts came to anything, but the project got new life after the success of The Hangover and the studio is now pushing agressively to get a raft of big names to make it a reality.

However this isn’t the only movie Aniston is in talks for, as Variety reports that she and Paul Rudd are attached to the Judd Apatow produced Wanderlust for Universal. Rudd is also re-writing and producing the pic, which follows a couple who, after losing all their money, decide to go and live at a free-wheeling commune. Presumably hilarity ensues. Role Models helmer David Wain will direct, with plans to start shooting in September.
