"Pitch Perfect: K-Pop Idols" Series in Works

Yara Sameh Elizabeth Banks and Max Handelman's Brownstone Productions has inked a first-look deal with Universal Television (UTV). The company was previously set up under an overall deal at Warner Bros. Television. Under the deal, Brownstone will develop and produce TV series with UTV across all platforms. Furthermore, Brownstone has promoted Anna Hughes to vice president and Kristen Spence to creative executive. They will report to Krissy Wall, who is Brownstone's head of television. Alison Small serves as head of film. Brownstone currently has two projects in development with UTV for Peacock. First, there is the comedy 'Pitch Perfect: K-Pop Idols.' Hailing from writer Joel Kim Booster, the logline states that the show 'follows a struggling singer-songwriter whose life completely turns upside down when she finds herself auditioning to be a part of the first all-American K-pop group.' This marks the latest TV expansion of the 'Pitch Perfect' film franchise, of which Banks and Handelman are integral parts. Peacock previously aired the TV series 'Pitch Perfect: Bumper in Berlin' starring Adam Devine, who reprised his role from the films. Banks and Handelman will executive produce 'Pitch Perfect: K-Pop Idols' along with Paul Brooks and Scott Niemeyer for Gold Circle Films. Jason Moore will direct and executive produce. Brownstone and Gold Circle produced all three films in the 'Pitch Perfect' franchise, with Banks having directed 'Pitch Perfect 2″ and appearing onscreen in all three films. Moore directed the original film. Brownstone is also developing the series 'Crush' from writer and executive producer Addison McQuigg at Peacock. The show is said to be inspired by the 1995 episode of 'The Jenny Jones Show' titled 'Revealing Same-Sex Secret Crushes.' The logline states that it is 'set within the insane world of tabloid talk shows, weaving together a poignant tale of ambition, heartbreak and murder.' Banks and Handelman are again executive producers along with Patrick Macmanus and Littleton Road Productions, Elliot Page and Matt Jordan Smith for Pageboy Productions, and Joshua Beirne-Golden. UTV and UCP will co-produce. Brownstone has a long history with NBCUniversal, including the company's first-look deal with Universal Pictures. All three 'Pitch Perfect' movies hailed from Universal Pictures, with the franchise having grossed over $1 billion at the global box office. Banks also directed and produced the film 'Cocaine Bear' for the studio. Up next, she will appear in the Peacock series 'The Miniature Wife' alongside Matthew Macfadyen read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean
