Anna Kendrick and Rebel Wilson are to take the Barden Bellas on a global scale as they return for Pitch Perfect 2.
The first official trailer for the highly anticipated sequel sees the college a cappella group chasing worldwide domination as they enter an international singing competition, facing rivalry from European counterparts.
“No American team has ever won. The whole world hates us,” Elizabeth Banks’ character Gail Abernathy-McKadden tells the girl group.
Opening with the Barden Bellas performing Anna’s hit song Cups, the sneak peek shows returning cast members Anna (Beca Mitchell) and Rebel (Fat Amy), alongside Skylar Astin (Jesse Swanson), Brittany Snow (Chloe Beale) and newcomer Hailee Steinfeld, who plays a new member of the Bellas.
As well as reprising her role as the acerbic commentator, Elizabeth Banks makes her directorial debut with the second instalment, to be released in the US in May 2015.
She previously teased: “The cast is all back with some really amazing new cameos, some great songs, an incredible villain this time around. The rival group is played by this incredible group of Germans – just amazing singer-dancers.”
Lots of singing? Check. Girly bonding? Check. Fat Amy jokes? Check. We cannot wait.
