The Angry Birds Movie Returns to Theaters in 2027

• The Angry Birds are flocking back to the big screen
• However, you'll have to wait until 2027 for their arrival
• Returning cast members like Josh Gad will be joined by new additions such as Keke Palmer

The news of Angry Birds' cinematic return was met with widespread reactions of, "Oh, that's interesting." Setting sarcasm aside, while expectations were low for the first mobile game adaptation, the original film managed to pleasantly surprise audiences.

Given this positive reception, it's understandable that many are curious about what the third installment will deliver. Unfortunately, fans hoping for an imminent release will need to exercise patience, as Angry Birds 3 is currently scheduled for January 29, 2027.

Extended production timelines are quite common for animated features. Spider-Verse enthusiasts, for instance, have navigated years of uncertainty, ultimately learning that their trilogy's conclusion will also arrive in the distant year of 2027.

Rovio's acquisition by Sega likely played a significant role in bringing these furious feathered friends back to theaters, alongside the franchise's active community. After all, Sega successfully revitalized their Sonic the Hedgehog series, which they continue to leverage through upcoming titles like Sonic Rumble with movie-inspired cosmetics.

It's particularly noteworthy that established actors including Jason Sudeikis, Josh Gad, Rachel Bloom, and Danny McBridge are returning, as many have seen their careers flourish since the original films. They'll be complemented by new voices like absurdist comedian Tim Robinson and versatile actress Keke Palmer of Nope fame.

With the recent celebration of Angry Birds' 15th anniversary, now might be the perfect moment to explore what franchise Creative Officer Ben Mattes shared about this milestone.
