STX is getting the “Bad Moms” band back together next holiday season, as the independent studio is releasing “A Bad Moms Christmas” on Nov. 3, 2017.
Stars Mila Kunis, Kristen Bell, and Kathryn Hahn will reprise their roles from the original in a Christmas-themed sequel the studio is fas tracking. The film will follow the group of foul-mouthed ladies as they deal with their own mothers visiting for the holidays.
Jon Lucas and Scott Moore will write and direct the film. Suzanne Todd will produce and Bill Block will serve as executive producer.
“Bad Moms” made $113 million at the domestic box office and $179 million worldwide after its July 29 release. STX has already set a “Bad Dads” spin-off, set to hit theaters on July 14, 2017.
“This is a brand that has enormous goodwill all over the world, so expanding and extending the ‘Bad Moms’ franchise in an authentic and irreverent way has been a priority for our team,” STX Motion Picture Group Chairman Adam Fogelson said in a statement. “Jon and Scott have a truly hysterical story that was pure perfection. Mila, Kristen and Kathryn are excited to re-team, and we will move forward with ‘A Bad Moms Christmas’ on a similar time table and in much the same way in which we produced the original.”
