Players of the Angry Birds video game who hit the milestone of 1 billion birds in the past two days were rewarded with a glimpse of the stars of the upcoming animated movie.
Jason Sudeikis will lead the cast as Red, a bird with a temper problem, while Josh Gad will play speedy Chuck and Danny McBride will portray the volatile Bomb. Rounding out the vocal ensemble will be
Bill Hader, Maya Rudolph and Peter Dinklage.
"I'm extremely proud of this cast," the film's producer John Cohen said in a statement Wednesday. "Not only do we have Jason, Josh, Danny, Bill, Maya, and Peter bringing these characters to life, but they're surrounded by an all-star ensemble of emerging comedic talent -- these are some of the funniest people out there today, and we're thrilled to have them all on board."
"With 2.5 billion gamers around the world, Angry Birds is one of those brands that can drive massive fan engagement," added Dwight Caines, president of theatrical marketing for Sony Pictures. "That's why we wanted to bring this unlock to the fans first. Our filmmakers are cooking up a hilarious movie, and we know these fans can't wait to see how they're going to bring the Angry Birds' story to life on the big screen of movie theaters."
The film is scheduled to debut in the United States July 1, 2016.
