Anna Kendrick and Rebel Wilson: Directing, Producing, and Reuniting in 2025
The two biggest stars of the franchise, Anna Kendrick and Rebel Wilson, have both made significant career moves that position them as forces both in front of and behind the camera. Their recent projects demonstrate a clear intention to take creative control over their careers.
Anna Kendrick's Directorial Debut and Thriller Sequel
Anna Kendrick's career continues to diversify. In 2024, she starred in the action-comedy *Self Reliance*. However, her most notable recent step is her directorial debut, *Woman of the Hour*, a true-crime thriller which she also produced and starred in. This move shows her commitment to complex, challenging material outside of the musical comedy genre.
Fans of her 2018 thriller *A Simple Favor* will be excited to know that Kendrick is reprising her role as Stephanie Smothers in the sequel, *Another Simple Favor*, which is set to premiere in 2025. This reunion with co-star Blake Lively and director Paul Feig is one of the most anticipated releases of the year.
Rebel Wilson’s New Comedy and Cast Crossover
Rebel Wilson, who brilliantly portrayed the unforgettable Fat Amy, is also stepping into the director's chair. Since mid-2024, Wilson has been actively involved in directing, writing, producing, and starring in her new comedy film, *Girl Group*. This project follows a pop star who gets kicked out of her band, a thematic nod that will surely resonate with *Pitch Perfect* fans.
In a delightful *Pitch Perfect* crossover, Wilson is starring alongside fellow Bella Anna Camp (Aubrey Posen) in the 2025 action-comedy *Bride Hard*. This onscreen reunion of Fat Amy and Aubrey Posen, where they play lifelong best friends, has sparked excitement among the fanbase, proving that the cast’s bond remains strong.
The Bellas and Treblemakers: New TV Hits, Broadway, and Music
The rest of the core *Pitch Perfect* cast members have spread their wings across various high-profile projects in television, film, and music, cementing their post-Bellas careers.
Brittany Snow and Anna Camp: From A Cappella to Thrillers
Brittany Snow (Chloe Beale) has had a remarkably busy period, particularly on the small screen. In January 2025, she joined the cast of the hit Netflix series *The Night Agent* for its second season, marking a major shift into the action-thriller genre. She also has several other upcoming television projects, including *The Hunting Wives*, *The Beast in Me*, and *Murdaugh*, demonstrating a significant focus on dynamic, dramatic roles.
Anna Camp, fresh off her reunion with Rebel Wilson in *Bride Hard* (2025), continues to balance comedy and drama. Her work outside of the Bellas, particularly her acclaimed role as Sarah Newlin in *True Blood*, showcased her versatility, a trait she continues to exploit with various film and television roles.
Ben Platt and Skylar Astin: Broadway and Chart-Topping Music
The two male leads of the original *Pitch Perfect* film, Skylar Astin and Ben Platt, have continued to dominate the world of musical theater and pop music, proving the Treblemakers' talent was no joke.
Ben Platt, who played the illusionist Benji Applebaum, released his highly anticipated third studio album, *Honeymind*, on May 31, 2024, followed by a major North American "The Honeymind Tour." He also returned to his roots in the theatre, starring alongside Rachel Zegler in a limited London engagement of the musical *The Last Five Years*. His career is a masterclass in leveraging the platform of a major film franchise to build a powerhouse music and stage career.
Skylar Astin (Jesse Swanson) has remained active on the stage, recently appearing in the Encores! Off-Center production of *God Bless You Mr. Rosewater* at New York City Center. While primarily known for his acting, Astin continues to perform and record music, a natural extension of his *Pitch Perfect* role.
The Scene-Stealers: Adam, Hana, Alexis, and Ester
The supporting cast members, who were often responsible for the funniest and most memorable lines, have also found great success:
- Adam DeVine (Bumper Allen): The original leader of the Treblemakers and Fat Amy's love interest, DeVine is a successful comedian and actor. He is set to star in the final season of the critically acclaimed HBO series *The Righteous Gemstones* in 2025, a major television role that keeps him in the spotlight.
- Hana Mae Lee (Lilly Onakurama): The quiet but hilarious Bella who spoke in barely audible whispers, Lee has been focusing on the horror genre, recently wrapping the film *Swipe*. She is also expanding her creative efforts into filmmaking as a writer, producer, and makeup artist.
- Alexis Knapp (Stacie Conrad): The Bella with the "sexually active" dance moves, Knapp has several new film projects in the pipeline, including the psychological horror film *Down Below* (2024/2025) and *Another Day in America* (2025).
- Ester Dean (Cynthia Rose Adams): The talented singer-songwriter of the group, Dean continues her prolific career behind the scenes as a record producer and songwriter, having penned major hits for global stars like Beyoncé, Rihanna, and Katy Perry.
Is a Pitch Perfect 4 Happening? The Latest Reunion Rumors
While there is no official confirmation of a fourth *Pitch Perfect* movie, the cast’s continuous closeness is a source of hope for fans. The recent London reunion in April 2025 between Anna Kendrick, Rebel Wilson, and Chrissie Fit (Flo Fuentes) was widely publicized, proving that the Bella bond is still very much intact.
The fact that Rebel Wilson and Anna Camp are starring together in *Bride Hard* also confirms that the cast actively seeks opportunities to collaborate. While a *Pitch Perfect 4* teaser may circulate in fan circles, the reality is that the cast members are all currently engaged in high-profile, separate projects—from Kendrick’s directorial career to Platt’s sold-out music tours. For now, fans can take comfort in the numerous mini-reunions and the wealth of new work from the talented *Pitch Perfect* alumni.
The legacy of the *International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella (ICCA)* and the Barden Bellas lives on, not just in the memory of their iconic riff-offs, but in the booming, diverse careers of the actors who brought them to life.
