"Angry Birds Movie Set for January 2027 Release"

The news that the Angry Birds are making a comeback to the big screen has been met with a resounding, "Oh, that's cool." Alright, let's cut the sarcasm—while few anticipated much from the initial mobile-to-movie venture, the Angry Birds franchise pleasantly surprised many with its first films.

It's no surprise, then, that there's keen interest in what the third installment will offer. However, if you're eager to see it soon, you'll need to exercise some patience. Angry Birds 3 is currently scheduled for a release on January 29th, 2027.

It's not unusual for animated films to take several years to produce. Fans of the Spiderverse, for instance, have experienced prolonged periods of anticipation, with the final chapter of that trilogy also set to premiere in 2027.

Notably, big-name actors such as Jason Sudeikis, Josh Gad, Rachel Bloom, and Danny McBride will reprise their roles, having found career-defining moments since their initial appearances. Joining them are fresh faces like the surreal comedian Tim Robinson and the multitalented actress and star of Nope, Keke Palmer.
