The success of The Social Network, Wall Street 2, and Undercover Boss may well mark 2010 as the year that film and television embraced business stories. And now a New Line Cinema comedy set to hit the silver screen next year continues the fun, arguably with a more star-studded cast than any of its recent peers in the genre.

Horrible Bosses, which filmed in California and is now in post-production, is slated for a July release and could wind up being one of the most anticipated movies of next summer. The movie boasts a mega lineup of talent (Jennifer Aniston, Jason Bateman, Kevin Spacey and Jamie Foxx, to name a few) and an alluring, if dark, premise: three buddies conspire to murder their annoying bosses.

Bateman, Charlie Day (of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia) and SNL cast member Jason Sudeikis play the three friends.
