Filming concluded in December 2011, in Rogers, Arkansas. The film premiered in Los Angeles on September 24, 2012 and was released on October 5, 2012 in the United States. The film received generally positive reviews from critics and became a sleeper hit, earning $115.4 million worldwide. It is the first film in the trilogy and was followed by two sequels, Pitch Perfect 2 (2015) and Pitch Perfect 3 (2017).
That was great. Amazing. You know, there must be something in the water over there at Barden University, 'cause this next group is also from Barden. Ladies and gentlemen, the Barden University Treblemakers. Here we go, the Barden Treblemakers. They're on the trail for Lincoln Center, huh? Absolutely, they always are, Gail. My favorite, and everyone's favorite. Now it says here in my notes that their front man Bumper Allen has recently released his own line of sports sandals.
