Charlie Day, Jason Sudekis and Jason Bateman in Horrible Bosses
Halfway between the "put the camera down and let them riff" style of Judd Apatow productions, and the "tight and visually stylized" Todd Phillips aesthetic, Horrible Bosses takes a high concept premise but then lets its actors play in this dark and funny comedy.

She needs to pull a Julia Roberts and do an Erin Brockovich type role so we can be reminded that she has acting range. But until then, THR is reporting that Aniston is in talks to star in a developing comedy called...
