Ladies and gentlemen, start warming up your vocal chords and working on your choreography because the director for PITCH PERFECT 3 has been revealed, pitches!Â
It was only in June that the film was left in a bit of a quandary when Elizabeth Banks pulled out of the director’s chair for the movie, but now Banks has some good news… She took to social media on Twitter to share the news on who will be calling the shots on the movie – Trish Sie, a music video helmer and choreographer who made her feature debut on 2014’s STEP UP ALL IN.
