While the music of Pitch Perfect 2 has been a closely guarded secret in advance of the release, one track is now making its debut online with an international dance party.
“Crazy Youngsters” features lead vocals by Ester Dean, who stars in both Pitch Perfect movies as Cynthia-Rose Adams. The rest of the music video is filled out by stars of the film, YouTube sensations, and those who count as both, like Flula Borg.
Digital production company Portal A created the video, shooting across Berlin, London, and Los Angeles with the stars and fans of the film franchise.
“Our video is centered around the idea that people around the world—stars of the movie, online influencers, and fans of Pitch Perfect—are hearing ‘Crazy Youngsters’ for the very first time,” explained Portal A’s creative director and cofounder Kai Hasson. “As the song builds, people begin to dance, and impromptu parties break out around the world. We wanted the video to have this feeling that something special was happening simultaneously.”
Pitch Perfect 2 opens May 15.
