The Angry Birds Movie 3 has scored an earlier release date.
Sony Pictures released the animated The Angry Birds Movie in 2016. That was followed by a sequel, The Angry Birds Movie 2, in 2019. A third movie is in the works and was previously dated for January 29, 2027.
When is the new release date for The Angry Birds Movie 3?
The Angry Birds Movie 3 now arrives almost a month earlier than expected, as Paramount Pictures has bumped up its release date to December 23, 2026. This means that it will now be released in the same month as Avengers: Doomsday, Dune 3, the next Jumanji movie, Violent Night 2, and Robert Eggers’ Werwulf.
The move does, however, allow for some more space between Angry Birds and Ice Age 6, also known as Ice Age: Boiling Point, as that movie currently has a February 5, 2027, release date from 20th Century Studios.
Additionally, MrBeast and Salish Matter have joined the vocal cast of The Angry Birds Movie 3, while it’s also been announced that Anthony Padilla and Ian Hecox will reprise their respective roles as Hal and Bubbles.
The cast further includes Jason Sudeikis as Red, Josh Gad as Chuck, Rachel Bloom as Silver, Danny McBride as Bomb, Emma Myers, Keke Palmer, Tim Robinson, Lily James, Marcello Hernandez, Walker Scobell, Sam Richardson, Anna Cathcart, Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, Nikki Glaser, James Austin Johnson, and Psalm West.
The screenplay comes from Thurop Van Orman, who also serves as an executive producer alongside Toru Nakahara, John Cohen, Dan Chuba, and Carla Connor serve as producers. John Rice is the director.
The first Angry Birds Movie made approximately $352.3 million at the global box office, while The Angry Birds Movie 2 brought in around $152.8 million. The first film is currently available to stream on Peacock, while the sequel is streaming on Tubi.
