The Bellas are back for an a ca-sequel.
The first trailer for "Pitch Perfect 2," starring Anna Kendrick and Rebel Wilson, has arrived and the a cappella ladies kick it off with a favorite from the original. The sequel will premiere on May 15, 2015.
"Pitch Perfect 2" follows Beca (Kendrick) and Fat Amy (Wilson) through their senior year at Barden University as they compete at the World Championships of A Cappella. The Barden Bellas return many of their best voices and add a few new members to the mix.
Brittany Snow, Anna Camp, Skylar Astin and Adam DeVine will all reprise their roles. The movie also introduces new characters played by Hailee Steinfeld and Katey Sagal.
Elizabeth Banks makes her directorial debut on the film and returns to play a cappella commentator Gail alongside her co-host played by John Michael Higgins. Screenwriter Kay Cannon returned to pen the script.
"Elizabeth originated the idea for 'Pitch Perfect' and was instrumental in making the first film such a huge success," Universal Pictures chairman Donna Langley told The Hollywood Reporter in January. "She brings an enormous amount of energy and experience to everything she works on and we're thrilled that she is making her feature directorial debut on 'Pitch Perfect 2'."
"Pitch Perfect" hit all the right notes when it premiered in October 2012. A surprise success, the movie grossed more than $113 million worldwide.
