"Angry Birds Movie Set for January 2027 Release"

The Angry Birds are set to return to the big screen, but fans will have to wait until January 29, 2027 for the release of Angry Birds Movie 3. The announcement brought a wave of nostalgic excitement, especially considering how surprisingly successful the first film was—defying expectations for a movie based on a mobile game.

While many were hoping for an imminent release, the wait isn't too shocking when you consider the time it takes to produce high-quality animated films. Just look at Spider-Verse, which also has its final installment scheduled for 2027.

The recent acquisition of Rovio by Sega likely played a role in reviving the cinematic potential of the Angry Birds franchise. With Sega successfully revitalizing properties like Sonic the Hedgehog, it's no surprise they’re investing in another beloved gaming icon. Plus, the Angry Birds still maintain a strong and active fanbase, making this a smart move creatively and commercially.

Fans can look forward to seeing familiar voices return, including:

• Jason Sudeikis
• Josh Gad
• Rachel Bloom
• Danny McBride

They’ll be joined by exciting new additions to the cast such as:

• Tim Robinson (known for his unique comedic style)
• Keke Palmer, rising star and co-star of Nope

With the franchise’s 15th anniversary recently celebrated, now is the perfect time to revisit the series and catch up on what Creative Officer Ben Mattes had to say about the milestone.

Those birds sure are angry—and they're coming back with a vengeance.
