Also joining the cast is Modern Family(2009-2020) star Sarah Hyland as Heidi, who has worked with Devine before as the star has made a number of guest appearances on Hyland's hit family sitcom. New faces include Jameela Jamil ( She-Hulk: Attorney at Law) as Gisele, who appears to be following in her MCU footsteps as the show's antagonist. Like Bumper, Pieter has seemingly turned over a new leaf and will help the protagonist on his musical journey through his homeland. Krämer was a member of Das Sound Machine, an all-German a cappella group that the Bellas faced off against in the sequel. However, Devine isn't the only Pitch Perfect alumni returning, as Flula Borg ( The Suicide Squad) will also be returning as Pitch Perfect 2 villain Pieter Krämer. Who's Starring in Pitch Perfect: Bumper in Berlin?Īdam Devine will once again reprise his role as the egotistical, yet lovable, Bumper Allen, making this the third time that Devine has played the title character. Though Bumper's return has been flying a bit below the radar, the new show is just around the corner, so to get prepped for the Aca-reunion, here is everything we know so far about Pitch Perfect: Bumper in Berlin. As the title implies, Bumper is on his way to Deutschland in an attempt to rekindle his fading music career, likely to comedic results. ![]() In Pitch Perfect 2 (2015), Bumper cements himself as the guy who peaked in college, now working as an incompetent security guard and singing with an a cappella group consisting of older has-beens, though he does kindle a romance with Fat Amy (Rebel Wilson).Īdam Devine did not reprise his role for Pitch Perfect 3 (2017), but Bumper will be returning to screens later this year in his very own spin-off series, Pitch Perfect: Bumper in Berlin (2021). From Bumper's perspective, he was on top of the world, though his circle was quite small, and as much as he'd like to deny it, that all faded away when he took a job as John Mayer's personal assistant. Bumper was essentially the lead antagonist of the first film, as the egotistical face of the Treble Makers - the all-boy a cappella group who were the arch-rivals of the Barden Bellas. That was the character of Bumper Allen, played to pitch perfection by Adam Devine ( Workaholics). It also was a key role for another actor who played a character that the film's writers possibly didn't expect to become such a fan favorite. The success of the film speaks for itself, spawning two more sequels to create a trilogy, as well as breakout roles for stars such as Anna Kendrick ( Into the Woods) and Rebel Wilson ( Jojo Rabbit). Instead of trying to tackle every real-world high school issue under the sun as Glee did, Pitch Perfect almost feels like it satirizes a cappella culture, focusing on a rag-tag all-female group who have historically lost to all male groups. That success is more than likely what greenlit the ultimate modern college film, Pitch Perfect (2012).
