"Pitch Perfect 3" was a disappointment for Universal. It was the worst-reviewed of the three films by fans and critics on Rotten Tomatoes alike, and it made $100 million less in ticket sales than its predecessor, which isn't a total flop but probably still left a sour taste in the mouths of the creative team (via The Numbers). Since the 2017 release, no plans have been announced for a continuation of the film series.
Fans were stoked the following fall when Rebel Wilson posted a photo on Instagram with fellow "Pitch Perfect" actors Brittany Snow, Anna Camp, and Chrissie Fit each holding up four fingers. The debate over whether this was a cryptic hint at a sequel never materialized into anything concrete from the studio, although Wilson later mentioned in an interview that the photo was taken at a cast reunion, which they've continued to do often in the decade since first meeting, and that they would all love to make a fourth film in the series (via Vanity Fair).
Snow has also expressed her desire to reprise her role. On "The Kelly Clarkson Show" in March 2022, she called making the films a "no-brainer." "I do love doing them," Snow said. "I get to be with my best friends, and we get to sing and dance. ... So I would love to do another because we would just all get to be together."
However, different exciting news involving the series has been announced.
