Anna Kendrick Exits 'Pitch Perfect' 3?
Anna Kendrick may no longer reprise her role in "Pitch Perfect 3" according to rumors circulating online. GamenGuide previously reported that the production has faced several hurdles in the schedule.
It all started when Elizabeth Banks decided to give up the director's chair. Banks helmed the first two installments of the franchise. In turn, the franchise had to look for another director to take over "Pitch Perfect 3."
As expected, this caused a major delay in the production of "Pitch Perfect 3." When "Step Up All In" director Trish Sie took over the director's chair, another problem crop up among the cast.
