The Angry Birds Movie 2 (or simply Angry Birds 2) is an upcoming 2019 computer-animated action comedy film based on Rovio Entertainment's Angry Birds video game series, produced by Columbia Pictures, Rovio Animation, and Sony Pictures Animation, and distributed by Sony Pictures Releasing. The sequel to The Angry Birds Movie (2016), the film is directed by Thurop Van Orman, from a screenplay by Peter Ackerman, and stars the voices of Jason Sudeikis, Josh Gad, Danny McBride, Bill Hader and Peter Dinklage reprising their roles from the first film. Joining the voice cast are Leslie Jones, Rachel Bloom, Awkwafina, Eugenio Derbez, Sterling K. Brown, Brittany Snow, Lucy Hale, Demi Lovato, Brooklynn Prince. It is currently scheduled for release on August 16, 2019.

Plot

The Angry Birds embark on a new adventure,[2] while King Mudbeard, ruler of the Bad Piggies, plots revenge against them after they devastated his homeland in a prior battle to reclaim their eggs.[N 1] Meanwhile, a mysterious purple bird, Zeta, tired of her life on a remote, polar island, threatens them all with her own plans for conquest.[3]

Cast

Additionally, Rachel Bloom, Eugenio Derbez, Sterling K. Brown, Zach Woods, Lil Rel Howery, Dove Cameron, Beck Bennett, Nicki Minaj, Brittany Snow, Lucy Hale and Demi Lovato have been cast in undisclosed roles.

Production

A sequel to The Angry Birds Movie was announced in August 2016.[6] It will be directed by Thurop Van Orman, co-directed by John Rice, and written by Peter Ackerman. John Cohen will return from The Angry Birds Movie to serve as producer, with animation again handled by Sony Pictures Imageworks.[7] Sony Pictures Animation will co-produce the film, but had dropped out of the project beforehand and has not co-produced the first film.[8]

In the summer of 2017, production designer Pete Oswald stated that the sequel would be more of an adventure movie that introduces new characters and locations into the world established in The Angry Birds Movie. While he was not in a position to offer further details about the plot and characters, which remain unknown even in the months leading to the sequel's release, he expressed hope that it would be a better film than the first installment.[2]

In April 2018, the majority of the voice cast was announced. Sudeikis, Gad, McBride, Hader, and Dinklage will reprise their roles from the first film. Jones will voice a new female villain,[9][10] revealed to be Zeta in the teaser trailer.[11] In December 2018, Nicki Minaj joined the cast of the film.[12]

Marketing and release

Very little information about the film's plot and characters were revealed until Sony eventually released a teaser trailer and poster for it on February 21, 2019.[3]

The film is scheduled to be released on August 16, 2019, to mark the 10th anniversary of the release of the original Angry Birds game. The film was originally scheduled to be released on September 20, 2019, but was moved ahead twice to September 6, 2019, and then August 16, 2019.[13][14][15]
