Banks To Direct “Pitch Perfect 2”
“Pitch Perfect” was one of the few movies in recent years to have been that old-fashioned thing: a sleeper. With little advance hype, it parlayed its $17 million budget in $115 million at the box office. So a sequel was inevitable. But the first flick’s director, Jason Moore, is not returning. He’s been edged aside by Elizabeth Banks (pictured), who was one of the actors and producers of the original. Don’t cry for Moore, though. He’s directing a Live Action “Archie” movie.
