Fat Amy and the gang are returning to the big screen!
Pitch Perfect fever refuses to break. The comedy, released last year, is still going strong and even continues to garner press. How? It’s that good.
Plus, Universal is keeping the stars pretty busy… especially last weekend. First, most of the actresses from the movie (and some acafellas, too) popped up at the MTV Movie Awards (hosted by the movie’s Rebel Wilson) for one of the most insanely aca-awesome openers ever. Then, the lovely Anna Kendrick (who also starred in the film, but couldn’t make it to the show) released an official video for her cover of Lulu and the Lampshades’ song, “Cups,” which was featured in the movie and was the song that landed her character in The Barden Bellas singing group.

Now, with news of a sequel, the fever is only going to spike. According to SlashFilm.com, the head of Universal Pictures, Adam Fogelson, revealed that the studio plans to have the sequel, Pitch Perfect 2, in theaters in 2015. Considering the amount of commitment the movie’s stars showed over the weekend, it’s safe to assume they’ll all return for the sequel. Yay! You should expect the same great laughs, too, as the original writer, Kay Cannon, is also on board.
