\"Mike<\/a>Mike Judge, whose debut film Office Space<\/strong> has become a cult comedy classic, is heading back to the workplace with his new film, Extract<\/strong>. According to Variety<\/a><\/em>, the film will look at “what it’s like to be the boss when everything seems to be shifting around you.” In this case, the boss will be Jason Bateman.<\/p>\n

This is welcome news for fans of Judge’s work as both a film director and as creator of the cartoon series Beavis And Butthead<\/em> and King Of The Hill<\/em>. After Judge’s second film Idiocracy<\/strong> (2006), got unceremoniously dumped<\/a> in just a few theaters by some boneheads at Twentieth Century Fox, Judge sounded as if he didn’t want to direct another film. (Idiocracy<\/strong> is now quietly building its own cult audience on DVD.) Fortunately, he has had a change of mind.
