‘Horrible Bosses 2’ [CAST] Chris Pine Is Part Of Horrible Father-Son Team; Onscreen Dad Not Yet Cast

New Line is now full throttle on the sequel to the 2011 hit comedy, "Horrible Bosses." The complete cast is coming to fruition.

The rumor that Chris Pine is being eyed for a role has been confirmed, and the deal is closed(confirmed by Variety). He will be part of a horrible father and son team who steals the idea of an invention made by the lead characters. According to The Hollywood Reporter, producers Brett Ratner and Jay Stern were hoping that Christoph Waltz would play the dad, but sadly it appears they had no such luck.

Brett Ratner and Jay Stern are producing with John Cheng and John Rickard exec producing.

With the returning cast signed up and a new director on board, New Line has slated "Horrible Bosses 2″ for Nov. 26, 2014.

Jason Bateman, Jason Sudeikis and Charlie Day are set to return with Sean Anders on board to direct. They will face a new set of Horrible Bosses, the final cast is yet to be completed. The former bosses were Jennifer Aniston, Colin Farrell and Kevin Spacey.

Brett Ratner and Jay Stern are producing with John Cheng and John Rickard are exec producing.

The only other film set to bow that weekend is the Fox animated film "Home." Lionsgate's "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay" does open on Nov. 21 and should have a big impact on the Thanksgiving weekend, but since "Horrible Bosses 2″ will appeal more to younger men, it should serve as good counterprograming for the Thanksgiving Day weekend.

The first "Horrible Bosses" overperformed at the box office, bringing in more than $200 million worldwide.
