MUMBAI: Sean Anders and John Morris, who penned New Line's surprise comedy runaway hit We're the Millers, have been tapped by the company to tackle its comedy Horrible Bosses 2. Anders will helm the project while Morris will join the project as a producer.

Jason Bateman, Jason Sudeikis, Charlie Day and Jamie Foxx are set to reprise their roles in the workplace comedy.

John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein, who worked on the first movie, penned the original draft for the sequel. Anders and Morris recently did a rewrite.

Brett Ratner and Jay Stern are producing while John Cheng, John Rickard and Diana Pokorny are executive producing.

Anders directed Sex Drive and That's My Boy, the latter starring Adam Sandler and Andy Samberg. The duo is known for their comedy-writing work on She's Out of My League and Hot Tub Time Machine. They also worked on Dumb and Dumber To, the upcoming sequel to the Jim Carrey/Jeff Daniels classic Dumb and Dumber.
