It’s been over a decade sinceRebel Wilsonmade her debut inPitch Perfect, and now she has exciting news regarding the franchise. In a chat withBBC Radio 2’s Gaby Roslin, Wilson, whostars in the trilogy as Patricia"Fat Amy" Hobart, claims thatPitch Perfect 4is in the works, though nothing has been officially confirmed yet. The lastPitch Perfectmovie appeared in theaters in 2017 while a potential sequel was teased over the years.
The musical comedy written byKay Cannonwas first released in 2012, followed byPitch Perfect 2in 2015 and the third movie two years later. It is based on the non-fiction book of the same name byMickey Rapkin. Wilson stars in all three movies alongsideAnna Kendrick,Anna Camp,Brittany Snow,John Michael HiggingsandElizabeth Banks.
Although thePitch Perfectstar has no idea what the plot of the fourth movie will focus on, she is certain that it is being developed. She shared, “Hopefully there’s a fourth one in the works. There is one being developed. I mean, I know we’re older now, so I don’t exactly know what the storyline’s going to be. I guess they’ve got to get the script right first, which is the age-old dilemma.”
‘Pitch Perfect’ Was More About Having Fun Than Acting
Despite the years that have passed since Wilson played the role of Patricia, she loves being involved in the movies and hanging out with the cast who are “all still friends.” “I absolutely loved making those movies,” she said. “We’re all still friends, all of us girls – they’re just so joyful. I think what people see on the screen is just us having a laugh. It wasn’t really acting because I love singing and dancing, and I just loved hanging out with that cast so, so much. It was really fun.”
No storyline or casting has been confirmed forPitch Perfect4but, like its prequels, it will likely center around the female a cappella group, The Barden Bellas, led by Kendrick’s Beca Mitchell, who initially joined the group as a rebellious first-year student at Barden University.
