It may not be The Bellas — but there’s plenty more A cappella on the way.
The first trailer for Peacock’s Pitch Perfect television series, Pitch Perfect: Bumper in Berlin, is finally here — and it details the characters’ unexpected rise to fame.
In the first moments of the trailer, Bumper (Adam DeVine) learns he’s become an international sensation in Germany from a TikTok video he created. The logical next step? Move to Germany to harness that star power, and grow his singing career to unimaginable heights.
“I’ve wanted to be famous my entire life,” Bumper says. “I thought Berlin was gonna change everything.”

However, it’s not all smooth sailing for DeVine’s character, who will flee the stage, meet some fierce competition, and maybe even fall in love. (Modern Family lovers, get ready for a Haley and Andy reunion!)
He’s got a gang of friends behind him — Pieter (Flula Borg) and Heidi (Sarah Hyland) — working as his management team to guide him. Bumper will also work with a producer named DJ Das Boot (Lera Abova) who may help his music evolve.
And if that’s not enough, Jameela Jamil appears as Gisela, a pop star in her own right, who just may steal the spotlight from Bumper.

Hyland’s Heidi reminds Bumper: “If you don’t take a risk, you don’t grow.”
Of course, there’s no shortage of musical moments. Bumper will frequently break out in song, and strike the right chord for Pitch Perfect lovers. “I’m not like a corny, A cappella guy — I’m cool,” Bumper says. “Right?”
He’s met with silence by his friends.

Bumper in Berlin is executive produced by Pitch Perfect alum Elizabeth Banks, who explained the importance of keeping the original film collection’s essence.
“It was really important to us that Bumper in Berlin be recognizable to the fans, for its irreverent comedy and phenomenal music, but also entirely distinct from what you’ve seen before,” she said in a statement obtained by PEOPLE.
“We wanted to honor The Barden Bellas and the Pitch Perfect world, while expanding into a fresh and brilliantly weird character journey,” she added. “This story is about second chances, friendship, and the idea that your dreams can come true in unexpected ways – anywhere in the world, at any point in your life.”
