2012’s breakout hit Pitch Perfect was one of those movies that (A) was based on an original idea rather than being a (lazy take your pick) remake / sequel / adaptation, and (B) that actually managed to get a decent cult following going for it. What I’m kind of hoping is that, in about twenty years or so, this is one of the movies that we’ll eventually look back on with sweet nostalgia, at least until clickbait websites runs that nostalgia into the ground with endless listicles. Anyway, Pitch Perfect is getting a sequel–Pitch Perfect 2, and like the best sequels, it looks like it’ll retain the parts we liked about it (namely the return of Rebel Wilson and Anna Kendrick with those damn cups) while upping the stakes on the overall plot involving an international a cappella competition–check out just released trailer below–then hold onto your cups until May 15th next year when it hits theaters.
