Anna Kendrick wants a lesbian love scene in Pitch Perfect 3
Anna Kendrick has discussed the idea of adding a “passionate” lesbian sex scene in the upcoming Pitch Perfect 3, but admitted trying to get a PG-13 rating might get in the way.
The actress said in a recent interview that her characters and Brittany Snow’s “are pretty much in a lesbian relationship.”

The joking remarks came after she was asked who she would cast as her lesbian love interest if she played another gay part.
“Oh, boy. This is a really dangerous question,” she replied.
“There’s a specific fandom that ships Beca and Chloe, my and Brittany Snow’s characters from Pitch Perfect, so I feel like it would be a real betrayal to not choose Brittany.
“I mean, our characters are pretty much in a lesbian relationship. As far as we’re concerned, they’re secretly in love. We’ve joked that there will be all-out passionate lovemaking in the third movie. Too bad we still need that PG-13 rating.”
Despite that, she admitted that she still finds it hard to believe that some people consider her a gay icon.
“Oh, man. I’m such a straight, cis, Boringface McGee over here, so I love that that could be even a little true. The idea that I’m resonating with other people who have ever felt like outsiders is the coolest.”
Then again, perhaps it’s no surprise given that she’s accidentally surrounded herself with gay people.
“I don’t even notice it, but then I’ll think about my 10 closest friends right now, male and female, and honestly, they’re all gay. Gay people have just always been in my life.
“I remember my parents having to tell me as a kid that there were people, like some people in our church, who objected to homosexuality. I was like, ‘Wait, so they’re idiots, right?'”
