Jason Sudeikis, Josh Gad, Bill Hader, Danny McBride, and Peter Dinklage are returning as voice cast for "The Angry Birds Movie 2".
Sony Pictures announced last year that it had set a September 20, 2019, release date for "The Angry Birds Movie 2".
The release date coincides with the 10th anniversary of the hit video game.
"The Angry Birds", directed by Fergal Reilly and Clay Kaytis, was set on an island populated entirely by happy, flightless birds except for Red (voiced by Sudeikis), speedy Chuck (Gad), and Bomb (McBride). Hader returns as Leonard, king of the pigs, and Dinklage voices the Mighty Eagle.
"The Angry Birds Movie 2" will be directed by Thurop Van Orman, co-directed by John Rice, and produced by John Cohen.
Leslie Jones has been roped in to voice the film's villain. Rachel Bloom, Sterling K. Brown, Eugenio Derbez, Zach Woods, Awkwafina, Lil Rel Howery, Dove Cameron, and Brooklynn Prince are all part of the voice cast.
Peter Ackerman is writing the screenplay.
