The new Angry Birds Movie poster for the Sony Pictures release
Sony Pictures has released the new poster for The Angry Birds Movie, coming to theaters on May 20, 2016. You can check out The Angry Birds Movie poster in the gallery below!
In the movie, the main trio of Angry Birds will be led by Jason Sudeikis (Horrible Bosses, We’re the Millers) as Red, a bird with a temper, with Josh Gad (Frozen) as the speedy Chuck, and Danny McBride (This is the End, “Eastbound & Down”) voicing the volatile Bomb.
Supporting them are Bill Hader (Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs) as a pig, Maya Rudolph (Bridesmaids) as Matilda, and Peter Dinklage (“Game of Thrones”) as the Mighty Eagle. Also lending their voices to the video game adaptation are Keegan-Michael Key (“Key & Peele”), Kate McKinnon (“SNL”), Tony Hale (“Arrested Development”), Ike Barinholtz (Neighbors), Hannibal Buress (“Broad City”), Cristela Alonzo (“Cristela”), Jillian Bell (22 Jump Street), Danielle Brooks (“Orange is the New Black”), singer Romeo Santos and YouTube stars Smosh (Ian Andrew Hecox and Anthony Padilla).
The film was written by “The Simpsons” alum Jon Vitti and directed by Fergal Reilly and Clay Kaytis.
“The question Rovio gets more than anything is ‘Why are these birds so angry?'” producer John Cohen (Despicable Me) said previously. “This is the origin story for how that conflict came to exist between birds and little green piggies.”
In its various formats, the Angry Birds game has been downloaded over two billion times as of this year, with an animated series “Angry Birds Toons” that has collectively tallied three-billion views on numerous platforms.
