MANILA, Philippines - She outdid herself as the nymphomaniac dentist Dr. Julia Harris in the 2011 box-office hit Horrible Bosses. Now, Jennifer Aniston (photo) returns as Dale’s (Charlie Day) former horrible boss herself in the adult-comedy sequel, Horrible Bosses 2.
The hot dentist with an overactive libido and a yen for Dale, who once made him so miserable that he was ready to kill her, seems to be making strides toward conquering her demons. She’s in rehab now, even offering up her office, the site of so much unspeakable debauchery, as an after-hours meeting place for her therapy group.
“She’s trying to better herself. She’s in a sex-addiction group and we’re thinking that she’s doing pretty well this time,” Aniston says, while acknowledging that the jury is still out on how committed Julia is to her new lifestyle.
“I think she knows that everyone at those meetings is pretty vulnerable and on the verge of falling off the wagon, so for her it’s sort of another avenue for flirtation. She’s not well. She’s just not.”
Opening today across the Philippines, Horrible Bosses 2 is a New Line Cinema Presentation distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.
