Pitch Perfect 3 is a 2017 American musical comedy film directed by Trish Sie and written by Kay Cannon and Mike White. It is the sequel to Pitch Perfect 2 (2015), and the third film in the Pitch Perfect trilogy. The film features Anna Kendrick, Rebel Wilson, Hailee Steinfeld, Brittany Snow, Anna Camp, Hana Mae Lee, Ester Dean, Chrissie Fit, Alexis Knapp, Kelly Jakle, Shelley Regner, John Michael Higgins, and Elizabeth Banks—all reprising their roles from previous films—as well as John Lithgow, DJ Khaled, Ruby Rose, Matt Lanter, and Guy Burnet. The plot follows the a cappella group the Bellas, who have graduated from college and are reuniting for one final performance together as part of a USO tour.

Principal photography for Pitch Perfect 3 began in January 2017 in Atlanta, Georgia, and ended that April. The film was released in the United States by Universal Pictures on December 22, 2017, and received mixed reviews from critics, who deemed it inferior to its predecessors. Nevertheless, it grossed $185 million worldwide against its $45 million budget. It became the second-highest grossing musical comedy film of all time, behind Pitch Perfect 2.
