The Angry Birds Movie 2 is all set to come soon. A few of the voice cast members are returning to the film. Jason Sudeikis, Josh Gad, Bill Hader, Danny McBride, and Peter Dinklage have been roped in again lend their voices to their respective characters in Sony’s mobile game based film. Although, the film had mixed reviews, it was commercially successful and earning more than 350 million dollars worldwide with 107 million dollars domestically.

Sony has set the release date for the sequel as September 20, 2019. This date is important as it also marks the 10th anniversary of the famous mobile game. Sony and Rovio Entertainment, the video-game developer behind Angry Birds, will team up once again. The Angry Birds Movie was set on an island populated entirely by happy, flightless birds – except for Red (Jason Sudeikis), a bird with a temper problem, speedy Chuck (Josh Gad), and the volatile Bomb (Danny McBride). Bill Hader played the role of King Mudbeard, the king of Piggy Island, while Peter Dinklage voiced the Mighty Eagle.

While The Angry Birds Movie’s reviews were mixed, they were still better than most video-game based movies. It has a 43% rating at Rotten Tomatoes. The consensus reads, “The Angry Birds Movie is substantially more entertaining than any film adapted from an app has any right to be — which may or may not be much of an endorsement.”

Sony is set to gain publicity with the popularity of the video-game.
