Anna Kendrick and Rebel Wilson will be back for the third installment in the Pitch Perfect franchise.

Paul Brooks of Gold Circle Entertainment and Max Handelman and Elizabeth Banks of Brownstone Productions are returning to produce.

As The Hollywood Reporter exclusively reported, Kay Cannon, who wrote the first two installments, is in talks to write the third film. It’s unclear whether Banks will return to the director’s chair.

The first installment in the a capella franchise earned $115.4 million worldwide. The series stars Kendrick, Wilson and Brittany Snow, and the second film added Hailee Steinfeld as an important new member of the group.


Universal has dated Pitch Perfect 3 for Friday, July 21, 2017.
