Biography

Pitch Perfect 2

Pieter is first introduced as the Bellas are scouting for their European A Cappella rivals Das Sound Machine performing at a car show. He is seen with Kommissar on thanking the Bellas as they have taken over their world tour. Kommissar then asks Pieter in German what the tiniest creature is, after that, he is seen taunting the Bellas when Chloe says that the Bellas will blow minds by saying "With what, more of Flabby Abby's baby chute?" To which Fat Amy says is not her name, claiming he doesn't know her name, as he guesses with different and somewhat insulting nicknames (such as Obese Denise, Inflexible Tina and Lazy Susan), he is then referring to the Bellas as a hot mess.

He is seen again in the Riff Off with the rest of DSM (Das Sound Machine), The Tonehangers, The Bellas, Treblemakers and the Green Bay Packers. And again at the Worlds and as Beca tries to insult Kommissar, she replies by saying "I'm sorry. I don't speak loser, what did you say?" to which Pieter adds "She actually speaks eight languages, but loser is not one of them." as they head onstage and wow both the crowd and judges with their sassy and flashy mash-up of My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark (Light 'Em Up) and All I Do Is Win. He is then seen merely angered that they had been beaten by the Bellas in The Worlds Competition as he, and the rest of Das Sound Machine walk off.

Pitch Perfect: Bumper in Berlin

Pieter, who lives in Berlin, sees a viral TikTok of his old rival, Bumper. He calls him out of the blue and invites him to Berlin so he can manage his music career and help him take advantage of his viral stardom. Pieter manages musicians, with help from his assistant Heidi, but after a scandal with Das Sound Machine he is a pariah in Germany and can't get many to work with him. He brings Bumper over under false pretenses but eventually they form an alliance and work to set up Bumper's career. The main goal is to get him a spot at Germany Unity Day.

Pieter manages to convince his famous DJ sister, Thea, to help them produce a song for Bumper. She reluctantly agrees and produces a song for him - but one that he stole from Heidi. The song is a hit but eventually Bumper admits it's not his and Pieter is surprised that his assistant whom he's known for so long is a secret singer. Eventually, after much cajoling, Pieter gets Bumper in at Germany Unity Day. He sings, along with Heidi, and they are a great success. Pieter agrees to manage both of their music careers and is thrilled at the chance to start new and clear his bad reputation.

Pieter gets tempted to get back with his ex, Gisela, after she tries to win him back but he tells her he has a new group and life now and moves on.
