Bumper Allen has arrived in Berlin to take over the acapella world!
The trailer for the highly-awaited "Pitch Perfect" spin-off series for Adam Devine's character Bumper Allen has been released already.
Like the entire musical film series, the upcoming Peacock Original show will be produced by actress/producer Elizabeth Banks who also starred as Gail Abernathy-McKadden-Feinberg in the three "Pitch Perfect" films she also directed and produced.
Adam Devine is not the only "Pitch Perfect" star appearing in the upcoming television series. Flula Borg, who appeared in "Pitch Perfect 2," will also be reprising his role as Pietr.
"To think this journey began over 15 years ago - from the discovery of Mickey Rapkin's book, to three incredible films, and now a television series. We could never have imagined the life that this story would take on. It was really important to us that Bumper in Berlin be recognizable to the fans, for its irreverent comedy and phenomenal music, but also entirely distinct from what you've seen before," Banks said in a statement to Billboard.
Bumper's musical journey will embark on uncharted waters as his TikTok video trended in Germany, catching the attention of Pietre, played by Borg. He was then eventually invited to Berlin to kickstart his music career, which he had long hoped to do in the first three films.
Borg wouldn't be the only former castmate that Devine will be reuniting with, as he would also be in the same show with Sarah Hyland, who plays her assistant in the series and possibly his new love interest. (via Screen Rant)
Hyland and Devine go way back. The two became one of the most prominent on-screen comedic couples on television during their stint at "Modern Family." Hayley, played by Hayland, and Andy, played by Devine, were a fan-favorite in the show. That is why many were heartbroken that Hayley's character didn't end up with Andy when the show ended.
In the new series, many fans are hopeful that the two will finally rekindle their unrequited love on-screen. "The Good Place" actress Jameela Jamil will also be in the film, and so does model Lera Abova.
On the other hand, Devine and Hyland are married to their own spouses in real life. Devine married Disney alum Chloe Bridges while Hyland tied the knot with The Bachelorette's Wells Adams.
"Bumper in Berlin" will air on Nov. 28, 2022, on NBC and on Peacock.
