Another addition to the Pitch Perfect universe, Pitch Perfect Bumper In Berlin, will soon air on streaming platforms. This show is directed by Megan Amram and Elizabeth Banks. Although Megan has not been a part of the Pitch Perfect prequels, she has been widely known as the writer behind “The Good Place.” Elizabeth Banks, Paul Brooks, and Adam DeVine himself will also executively produce the series. These are the writers of the Pitch Perfect Franchise.
Pitch Perfect was seen for the first time on September 28th, 2012. At first, the movie barely had any viewers, but over the years it started gaining mass popularity. Seeing fans loving the movie, the creators launched two more movies in 2015 and 2017. Becoming a hit at the Box Office, the movies collected way more than 500 million dollars globally. It also became one of the top musical comedy films of all time.
This Peacock Original, made by Gold Circle Films and Brownstone Productions, was thought up in September 2021 and after almost a year, the streaming platform is all set to release the episodes. The show has no direct connection to the Barden Bellas but is based on Bumper Allen, who used to be one of the antagonists of the movies. As of now, there’s no news of Barden Bellas or any of the Treblemakers being a part of the show.
