While they haven't sealed the deal on "Horrible Bosses 2," two of the film's alums are teaming up on a new project.

"Horrible Bosses" director Seth Gordon will be taking up the reigns of Universal's "Identity Theft," starring Jason Batemen and Melissa McCarthy.

Details on the comedy are scant; it revolves around a man whose identity is stolen by a woman (hilarity ensues, etc, etc.).

Steve Conrad ("The Pursuit of Happyness") wrote the initial draft and Craig Mazin ("Hangover Part II") is rewriting the screenplay. No word yet on whether Crystal the Monkey will make an appearance.
