Anna Kendrick and Brittany Snow’s Halloween Microdosing Adventure: A Tale of Friendship and Unexpected Highs

In 2023, Anna Kendrick and Brittany Snow shared an unforgettable Halloween experience that highlighted not just a wild night, but also the strength of their friendship. Known for their chemistry in Pitch Perfect, the two actresses tried microdosing mushrooms at a casual party, only to find the evening veer into uncharted territory.

Recounting the story on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert in October 2024 while promoting her directorial debut Woman of the Hour, Kendrick revealed that what was meant to be a gentle microdose quickly turned into a “macrodose” thanks to unevenly mixed mushrooms in a chocolate bar. “Oh no, I’m so high. Oh God, I’m so high,” Kendrick admitted, describing her intense first-time experience.

Realizing her friend was “tripping balls,” Snow didn’t hesitate—she took more mushrooms herself to share the experience. This solidarity transformed what could have been a lonely and overwhelming trip into a bonding moment. The pair found themselves in a corner, laughing uncontrollably with tears streaming, likened by Kendrick to “grinning like the Joker,” yet feeling surprisingly great.

The surreal night sparked creativity and admiration between them. Kendrick praised Snow as a “creative genius,” even suggesting she remake the film Chinatown. She recalled seeing Snow’s face jewels seemingly blending into the Los Angeles skyline—an image capturing the magic and strangeness of the night.

This candid story not only entertained but also shone a light on the deep trust and support between Kendrick and Snow. Brittany’s choice to join Anna on the unexpected journey exemplified their close bond and ability to navigate challenges together.

As Kendrick shared the tale publicly, fans were reminded that sometimes the most memorable moments come from embracing the unexpected—especially when shared with a true friend.
