Bumper In Berlin Is Officially Getting A Second Season

Bumper still has a lot more to sing about, and the Season 1 finale of his Pitch Perfect spinoff series Bumper in Berlin was evidence of that. The Peacock series ended with some pretty big cliffhangers, and thankfully its cast and showrunner already have some juicy plans for a follow-up season. Here’s what to know so far about Pitch Perfect: Bumper in Berlin Season 2.

Spoiler alert: This post discusses the Season 1 finale of Bumper in Berlin. The first season of the Pitch Perfect series ended with a major twist, which presented a pretty clear angle for Season 2. In the final episode, Bumper suddenly married Thea to gain German citizenship and avoid deportation due to his lapsed visa. The wild scheme worked, but came at a cost — now he’s stuck in Berlin having to pretend to be in a relationship with Thea, while his actual love interest, Heidi, is planning a move to Los Angeles to pursue her music career.

That marital drama could very well be at the center of Season 2, and showrunner Megan Amram teased that she’d already been planning a second season prior to Season 1’s premiere. “I do have ideas for Season 2,” Amram told Elite Daily. “Maybe we'll get a Season 2, maybe we won't, but I have ideas in mind just in case.”

Luckily, fans will get to see those ideas play out, because Peacock renewed Bumper in Berlin for a second season on Jan. 9, a month and a half after its debut.

It sounds like the new season of Bumper in Berlin will be even messier than the first, so here’s what fans can probably expect next.

Pitch Perfect: Bumper in Berlin Season 2 Cast Predictions

Although Season 1 ended with Heidi mulling over a move to L.A., don’t expect her to disappear from the show in Season 2. When asked if Sarah Hyland would be involved in a new season, Amram confirmed “that is absolutely my intention.” “The real beating heart of this show is the ensemble,” Amram told Elite Daily. “So I would really want to make sure that we got all of our characters interacting.”

Along with Heidi, the rest of the main ensemble cast is also expected to return: Adam DeVine as Bumper, Flula Borg as Pieter, Lera Abova as Thea, and Jameela Jamil as Gisela.

Amram also teased the possibility of more Pitch Perfect characters reprising their movie roles in future seasons of the series. Specifically, Bumper’s ex, Amy, played by Rebel Wilson, got a few shoutouts in Season 1. “I definitely would like to see how Bumper interacts with [Amy] now that they have not seen each other for many years,” Amram said.

Pitch Perfect: Bumper in Berlin Season 2 Release Date Predictions

There’s no release date for Season 2 yet, but if the show follows a typical production schedule, the new season should be available to stream towards the end of 2023.
