It was the perfect antidote to years of Glee glaucoma and even included a catchy number involving Anna Kendrick playing a plastic cup.

Thus, there was no question Pitch Perfect was going to be back for more, especially in an age where Hollywood has a scent for sequels.

The latest trailer for Pitch Perfect 2 starts off with its strongest and funniest actor, Rebel Wilson, singing "Wrecking Ball" from a swing hanging from the stage of the Kennedy Centre in Washington, DC. That's right: Wilson's character, Fat Amy, is performing for the President and the First Lady along with the other Barden Bellas when the swing and her dress malfunction, forcing her to flash the entire audience and the Commander-in-Chief.

They are suspended from all competitions as a result - unless they beat the European champions in some sort of a cappella-Coachella World Cup. The Europeans by the way are like a cross between Kraftwerk and a Goth version of ABBA. So conclusion: it's going to be impossible for the Bellas.

However, there's only one way you can win over a difficult crowd: Beyonce, and the trailer implies that "Run the World (Girls)" may be this film's version of "Cups".
