Anna Kendrick also plays another pivotal character in the film, Beca Mitchell who is the leader of the Barden Bellas. Other cast members in the second film are Brittany Snow, Anna Camp and Skylar Astin. The director of “Pitch Perfect 2,” Elizabeth Banks, is also a member of the cast.
It is not yet known if anyone else from the original cast have been signed on. The sequel’s plot is also not known. Although it is likely that if there is a sequel, it will follow the adventures and misadventures of the acapella group, the Barden Bellas.
“Pitch Perfect 2” follows the group after they gained some prestige after winning the national collegiate championship. In this film however, some of the characters from the first film are already graduates, but this did not bar their appearance in the second film, such as that of Adam Devine as Bumper, Britanny Snow as Chloe Beale and Anna Camp as Aubrey Posen. This time around, the group faces another challenge of winning an international aca pella competition, which has never been won by an American group.
A report in SlashFilm also cites that if “Pitch Perfect 3” was indeed happening, the film’s writers have to contend with the fact that its lead characters Beca and Fat Amy are graduating seniors in the sequel. This means that they have to think of some creative way to bring them back in the third film.
