So... they're going to try to kill their bosses again?
One of the summer's biggest box office surprises, "Horrible Bosses," will likely have a sequel, reuniting the same creative team from the original film. According to the Hollywood Reporter, John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein, the screenwriting team behind the surprise $118 million hit, have just signed on to write the follow-up.
The film's leads, Jason Bateman, Charlie Day and Jason Sudeikis, are all expected to return for the sequel, in addition to the original director, Seth Gordon.
The other big comedy hit from last summer, "Bridesmaids," has also been at the center of sequel talk, but a new report from the Hollywood Reporter claims that Universal is ready to move ahead with a follow-up with or without star and co-writer Kristen Wiig.
Looks like we'll see something of an "Avengers" throwdown on the set of "Bourne Legacy."

Few things in life are as consistently entertaining as Jim Henson's Muppets. They date all the way back to the mid-'50s, before "Muppet" existed as a word, on the TV series "Sam and Friends." And even today, they still delight the masses with fun diversions, such as the

There are a lot of funny movies coming our way this summer, and perhaps the funniest of the bunch is coming our way really soon -- Kristen Wiig's "Bridesmaids."
The "Saturday Night Live" comedian has already started clawing into the big screen with appearances in this year's "Paul" and the love-it-or-hate-it "MacGruber," but it's "Bridesmaids" that really shows what she's capable of. A relentlessly hilarious film with a surprising and touching emotional center, "Bridesmaids" is very clearly close to home for Wiig -- not only is she the main character (who is in virtually every single scene, if not all of them), she also co-wrote the comedy.
