HORRIBLE BOSSES 2 has also set its release for November 28, 2014, with filming beginning next month in LA.

Waltz's other upcoming projects include Muppets Most Wanted, Big Eyes, Reykjavik, Triple Nine and Candy Store. His other big screen credits include The Zero Theorem, Epic, Django Unchained, Carnage, The Three Musketeers, Water for Elephants, The Green Hornet and Inglourious Basterds.
