Bumper Allen is back, but he is in Berlin, Germany, frolicking around! If you don't recall who Bumper Allen is, he was the leader of the acapella group Treblemakers on the hit 2012 musical comedy "Pitch Perfect" portrayed by Adam Devine.
Five years since "Pitch Perfect 3" came out on theatres, the spin-off series of the film, titled "Bumper in Berlin," will now be starring the lovable yet arrogant Bumper as he made its way out of collegiate acapella.
In a trailer recently released, Devine's character Bumper Allen surprised everyone in what seemed to be his vlog, recorded via what seemed to be a zoom recording of himself.
"Hey everyone, it's me, Bumper Allen! I know I might've been off the grid for a little while, but I've been busy putting together a little mash-up for you guys. So, check it out. You might recognize a familiar face...or seven," he said on the trailer.
Turns out, all seven faces are his, interchanging and in a strip film of carousels of his face as he mashed up two hit classics - a-ha's "Take On Me" and Nena's "99 Luftballoons."
According to Billboard, Adam Devine would not be alone on the series as another familiar face would be acccompanying him on the new Peacock series.
Aside from the "Pitch Perfect" franchise, Devine was also notably known for his portrayal of Andy in "Modern Family." Sarah Hyland, whose recent wedding marked a grand reunion of some of the "Modern Family" stars, will be with Devine on "Bumper in Berlin."
For those who cannot recall, Devine and Hyland shared a significant amount of screen time together on the Emmy Award-winning comedy series. They became on-screen couples who became one of the show's fanbase's ultimate couples. But despite the undeniable chemistry between the two, the ship sank, and Haley ultimately married Dylan, his on-and-off boyfriend, too many fans' frustration.
Although in the new series, it has not yet been confirmed if the two will be going into a romantic relationship. Aside from Hyland, "The Good Place" alum Jameela Jamil will also be a new addition alongside Flula Borg, who was also on the second "Pitch Perfect" film.
"Bumper in Berlin" will be executive produced by Elizabeth Banks and will premiere on Peacock on Thanksgiving 2022.
