Jennifer Wows Us At "Horrible Bosses" London Premiere

(AP) -- "Horrible Bosses" arrived in London last Wednesday with a blue carpet premiere for the European opening of the movie.

Director Seth Gordon and stars Jason Bateman, Charlie Day and Jason Sudeikis were all there, but the night belonged to Jennifer Aniston, who sparkled dressed in gold.

Aniston plays Dr. Julia Harris, one of the 'Horrible Bosses' of the title. She really seemed to relish the role of man-eater, pushing her comedic talents further than usual.

"How do you not love shooting something like that, it was so fun. I mean it doesn't come along very often to be able to crazy and with total freedom and just be as bad as you want it to be," said Aniston.

Even her co-stars and director were surprised by just how steamy Ms. Aniston could be:

"No, right! That came a little too easy for her. So who knows what she's like at home, but she had a blast with this. She was fantastic," said Charlie Day.


"It wasn't a challenge. She read the script and she, I think really responded to the role, you know. It's not the kind of role she often gets offered and I think she really seized on to it and went for it. I mean, there was no holding back," said Seth Gordon.

The movie is about three guys who hate their jobs and want to kill their bosses.

Naturally, no member of this trio is nearly as clever or sophisticated as he thinks he is. Together, they bumble and bungle every step of the way and occasionally, by accident, they get something right. But the dynamic between Bateman, Sudeikis and Day has helped make the film a box office smash - grossing 28.1 dollars million so far.

But have any of them been horrible bosses themselves? No, well, not yet anyway, as Sudeikis admits:

"No. I haven't, no I'm not that responsible yet, I haven't had to hire anybody either".

'Horrible Bosses' opened in Europe on Friday 22nd July.
