I'd be surprised if the Pitch Perfect series hasn't been pitched (haha) to Broadway yet, though that one would not be surprising.

Pitch Perfect has all the foundation to make a fantastic musical. Though, the only caveat is, part of the plot is that they only use remixes of existing songs instead of original songs, right? So you'd either have to abandon that plot and rework it completely to be all original songs, or get a lot of rights..

Would that be much more difficult than the movie crew getting the rights? Unless some people just straight up hate having their stuff featured in a musical...

I have no idea, but that might end up dating a musical more than is really noticeable in a movie. I assume it would disqualify it from winning any awards from music, too, since it wouldn't be original, and it does seem a little strange to have a musical all about music without an original score.

I guess they could always just write original songs but call them mashups. But it wouldn't have the same effect on the audience as hearing a recognizable song... but then again, that's not necessarily a bad thing, it would just require reworking the story a little.

I think Jersey Boys was all or mostly non-original songs, and that still won Tonys. I think it could work, especially since you could even update the songs they perform as-needed.
