LOS ANGELES, Dec. 24 (UPI) -- Bad Moms star Kristen Bell has announced via Twitter there is a holiday-themed sequel to the big-screen comedy on the way.

"Get ready. It's about to get festive as a mother. A BAD MOMS CHRISTMAS coming for ya winter 2017! #BadMomsXmas," Bell tweeted.

The message accompanied a 20-second video with the scrolling words: "Attention all bad moms: Between all of the shopping, gift wrapping, cleaning, cooking, holiday cards, teacher gifts, potlucks, end of year performances, visits from in-laws, Christmas parties, decorating, holiday travel, cookie baking... Remember: You're doing great. And on Nov. 3, 2017, these [expletives] have your back. Bad Moms 2."

The clip ends with a photo of Bell and her Bad Moms cast-mates Mila Kunis and Kathryn Hahn having a drink at a bar, while holiday music plays in the background.

The first movie followed a trio of overworked mothers as they rebelled against the notion they can and should make their children's lives perfect.
