While the second installment of the a cappella hit was Elizabeth’s feature directorial debut, she is yet to confirm if she will be directing the third movie – the first film was directed by Jason Moore, who is directing this year’s predicted Christmas blockbuster Sisters starring Tina Fey and Amy Poehler.

For those who have been living under a rock for the past few years, Pitch Perfect, which launched in 2012, is a college comedy with lots of singing – a grunge/street version of Glee if you will – with different groups, with varying personalities, battling it out with their voices to win a prestigious music competition. 

The film was an instant hit and fast became a cult classic. As such the recently released Pitch Perfect 2 has already raked in nearly US$260 million in the global box office.

We’re so excited about the Aca-trilogy!

The third movie already has a release date of July 21, 2017, as confirmed on the Pitch Perfect Facebook page.
