Get ready for some more a cappella fun! The sequel to the 2012 musical comedy PITCH PERFECT has been confirmed. Rumours about PITCH PERFECT 2 started swirling last year and we’re happy to hear they’re really true!
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Elizabeth Banks (who plays Effie Trinket in THE HUNGER GAMES trilogy) will be directing the film. Banks also produced the first film and had a small but hilarious role as Gail.
Anna Kendrick and Rebel Wilson will also likely be returning for round two. It’s safe to say that the sequel wouldn’t be the same without these two funny girls on board.
When asked about the exciting news, Kendrick said, “It’s totally huge!” and went on to add, “I wish there was a script. But I really do [want to be in it]. I’m like banging down the doors.”
With the same writers, production team and cast as the first film, we have high hopes for PITCH PERFECT 2. Fans can also expect to see a few new faces, as Demi Lovato and Brittany Snow are both said to be joining the cast.
PITCH PERFECT 2 is scheduled to hit theatres in 2015. Are you excited about this sequel?
