The Angry Birds Movie is a 2016 animated comedy film based on Rovio Entertainment's Angry Birds franchise, produced by Columbia Pictures and Rovio Animation, and distributed by Sony Pictures Releasing. The film was directed by Clay Kaytis and Fergal Reilly from a screenplay written by Jon Vitti and a story by Mikael Hed, Mikko Pöllä, and co-producer John Cohen. It stars the voices of Jason Sudeikis, Josh Gad, Danny McBride, Maya Rudolph, Kate McKinnon, Sean Penn, Tony Hale, Keegan-Michael Key, Bill Hader, and Peter Dinklage. The film follows Red (Sudeikis), an outcast in an island of anthropomorphic flightless birds, as he suspects a newly arrived crew of pigs led by Leonard (Hader) of plotting an evil plan, and attempts to put a stop to them with the help of his newfound friends Chuck (Gad) and Bomb (McBride).
After the success of the Angry Birds Toons animated series, Rovio subsequently began development on an adaptation of the Angry Birds video game series, and would proceed to make a proper announcement in December 2012. The first image from the film was revealed in October 2014, with Sudeikis, Gad, McBride, Hader, Rudolph, and Dinklage revealed to be part of its cast at the same time. Rovio and Sony Pictures announced that they would spend roughly €100 million for the marketing and distribution of The Angry Birds Movie, surpassing the €8.5 million budget of Big Game (2014) to become the most expensive Finnish-produced film up to that point. Sony Pictures Imageworks was responsible for handling animation services for the film.
The Angry Birds Movie was released in the United States and Canada on May 20, 2016. The film received overall mixed reviews from critics and grossed $352 million worldwide. A sequel, The Angry Birds Movie 2, was released on August 14, 2019, co-produced by Sony Pictures Animation, who were not involved with this film. A third installment, The Angry Birds Movie 3, is scheduled to be released by Paramount Pictures on January 29, 2027.
Plot
Red, a bird with a short temper, is an outcast on Bird Island, an island containing a village inhabited by anthropomorphic, flightless birds. When he accidentally causes a premature hatching of a bird family's egg, he is sentenced to anger management class, the highest penalty allowed on the island. Two of Red's classmates—Chuck, who is hyperactive and can move at hypervelocity, and Bomb, who can cause explosions with his anger and fear—try to befriend him, but he avoids them.
One day, a boat docks at the island's shore, damaging Red's house. The birds greet two green-colored pigs, the captain Leonard and his assistant Ross, who claim to be peaceful explorers bringing offerings of friendship. They introduce the birds to various innovations, including a giant slingshot, but Red becomes suspicious of the pigs' motives and sneaks into Leonard's boat. Chuck and Bomb follow Red, and they find more pigs hidden below deck, contradicting Leonard's claim that he and Ross are alone. When Red returns and shows everyone the other pigs, the birds accept Leonard's explanation that he only lied to see if Bird Island was safe for his simple-minded cousins.
Still suspecting that there is something off about the pigs, Red recruits Chuck and Bomb to find Mighty Eagle, Bird Island's missing protector and the only bird who can fly. They find Mighty Eagle on top of Eagle Mountain, but he has become an overweight, self-absorbed slacker who has not flown for years. Red discovers the pigs planting dynamite around the island and stealing the eggs while the birds are distracted by a party. When Mighty Eagle refuses to help them, Red admonishes him. Red, Chuck, and Bomb attempt to warn the other birds and stop the pigs, only for the pigs to destroy the village with the dynamite and escape with the eggs. The other birds apologize to Red for not listening to him. Red forgives everyone and under his leadership, they organize an army and build a boat from the rubble to follow the pigs to Piggy Island.
The birds discover the pigs living in a walled city ruled by Leonard, known as "King Mudbeard". Deducing that the eggs are in the castle at the center of the city, the birds use the pig's giant slingshot to launch themselves over the walls and into the city's castle. Most of the birds miss the castle but destroy other buildings, with Red, Chuck, and Bomb being the only ones successfully shot into the castle. The pigs lower the eggs into a giant pot, planning to cook and eat them. Mighty Eagle, having had a change of heart, arrives to retrieve Red, Chuck, Bomb, and the eggs. One egg falls out of the net and Red battles Leonard for it. They fall into a room containing the pigs' reserve of dynamite, which Leonard accidentally ignites. The dynamite explodes, destroying the city, but the giant pot falls on top of Red, shielding him and the egg from the blast.
All the families, except for one, reunite with their eggs. Red emerges holding the egg, containing three blue hatchlings,{{efn|Identified offscreen as The Blues (Jay, Jake, and Jim)}} and returns the brothers to their parents. Mighty Eagle approaches Red, Chuck, and Bomb, claiming that he merely appeared lazy so that they could lose faith in him and find faith in themselves, and takes credit for saving the eggs. As Bird Island is rebuilt, Red discovers that the other birds have rebuilt his house in the center of the village. The pigs survive their home's destruction, and Leonard plots a new plan.

The film was officially announced in December 2012, although IGN noted that this was "after months of speculation".{{cite web|last1=Davis|first1=Justin|title=ANGRY BIRDS MOVIE ANNOUNCED FOR 2016|url=https://www.ign.com/articles/2012/12/11/angry-birds-movie-announced-for-2016|website=IGN|date=December 11, 2012 |access-date=24 June 2016|archive-date=November 12, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201112010442/https://www.ign.com/articles/2012/12/11/angry-birds-movie-announced-for-2016|url-status=live}} The success of the Angry Birds Toons series, according to Rovio employee Jami Laes, "validated" the idea of creating a feature film.{{cite web|last1=Takahashi|first1=Dean|title=Rovio's Jami Laes on keeping Angry Birds in the entertainment vortex (interview)|url=https://venturebeat.com/2014/01/14/rovios-jami-laes-on-keeping-angry-birds-in-the-entertainment-vortex-interview/|website=VentureBeat|date=January 14, 2014|access-date=14 May 2016|archive-date=May 12, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170512071936/https://venturebeat.com/2014/01/14/rovios-jami-laes-on-keeping-angry-birds-in-the-entertainment-vortex-interview/|url-status=live}}

The film's budget is estimated at $80 million (€75 million). Rovio and Sony Pictures announced that they would spend roughly €100 million for the marketing and distribution of the film, giving it the largest budget in the film industry in Finland, outvaluing Big Game{{'s}} (2014) €8.5 million.{{cite news |last1 = Saarinen |first1 = Juhani |last2 = Teivainen |first2 = Aleksi |title = Rovio splashes over €100m in animated feature |url = http://www.helsinkitimes.fi/business/13289-rovio-splashes-over-100m-in-animated-feature.html?ref=nl-hs-aamu |access-date = March 23, 2015 |work = Helsinki Times |date = March 19, 2015 |archive-date = March 24, 2015 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20150324180543/http://www.helsinkitimes.fi/business/13289-rovio-splashes-over-100m-in-animated-feature.html?ref=nl-hs-aamu |url-status = live}} Despite the massive budget, Rovio CEO Mikael Hed stated that "it is the one that I don't ever lose any sleep over",{{cite news |last1 = Rossi |first1 = Juhana |last2 = Grundberg |first2 = Sven |title = Angry Birds Maker Rovio Aims for the Next Level |url = https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424052702303417104579546104176570972 |website = Wall Street Journal |date = May 6, 2014 |access-date = August 28, 2015 |archive-date = September 23, 2015 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20150923230248/http://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424052702303417104579546104176570972 |url-status = live}} calling it "tremendously strong as a story". During August 2015, Rovio announced that they were expecting to cut 250 jobs equaling 40% of the company, the only sector spared being personnel working on the movie.{{cite web |last1 = Spangler |first1 = Todd |title = 'Angry Birds' Maker Rovio to Axe 260 Jobs, But Spares Movie Staff |url = https://variety.com/2015/biz/news/angry-birds-rovio-layoffs-260-jobs-1201578622/ |website = Variety |date = August 26, 2015 |access-date = August 28, 2015 |archive-date = August 27, 2015 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20150827062722/http://variety.com/2015/biz/news/angry-birds-rovio-layoffs-260-jobs-1201578622/ |url-status = live}}
When multiple major studios approached Rovio to discuss the production of the film adaptation in 2010, Hed eventually decided to have Rovio establish its own in-house animation studio and have it work on the film, rather than risk losing creative control in allowing a third-party studio to produce it. David Maisel, the founding chairman of Marvel Studios, offered to help Hed and Rovio produce the film,{{cite book|editor1-last=Sorensen|editor1-first=Jim|title=The Art of The Angry Birds Movie|date=June 1, 2016|publisher=IDW Publishing|page=9|quote=Hed: "We were first approached in early 2010 by Hollywood studios to discuss making Angry Birds into a feature film...I had in my mind a vision for what the world of Angry Birds was, and I wanted to make sure that we would be in control of what the story of the movie would be. If we had given Angry Birds to another studio to be developed, we would have lost that creative control. So I ultimately decided that we had to try to make the movie ourselves, even if I didn't know how to make that a reality. That is, until I met David."}} as well as John Cohen from Illumination Entertainment and Catherine Winder from Lucasfilm, who later served as the film's producers.{{cite book|editor1-last=Sorensen|editor1-first=Jim|title=The Art of The Angry Birds Movie|date=June 1, 2016|publisher=IDW Publishing|page=10}} Animation services were handled by Sony Pictures Imageworks in Vancouver,{{cite news |last1=Seikaly |first1=Andrea |title='Angry Birds' Pic Nests in Vancouver |url=https://variety.com/2014/film/games/angry-birds-pic-nests-in-vancouver-1201104828/ |access-date=July 21, 2018 |work=Variety |publisher=Variety Media |date=February 14, 2014 |archive-date=July 21, 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180721221956/https://variety.com/2014/film/games/angry-birds-pic-nests-in-vancouver-1201104828/ |url-status=live }}{{cite web |title=The Angry Birds Movie |url=https://www.imageworks.com/our-craft/feature-animation/movies/angry-birds-movie/ |website=Sony Pictures Imageworks |publisher=Sony Pictures Entertainment Inc. |access-date=August 24, 2020 |language=en |archive-date=October 1, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201001132709/https://www.imageworks.com/our-craft/feature-animation/movies/angry-birds-movie |url-status=live }} while Skywalker Sound handled audio post-production services.{{cite web |title=The Angry Birds Movie |url=https://www.skysound.com/projects/the-angry-birds-movie/ |website=Skywalker Sound |publisher=Lucasfilm Ltd. |access-date=August 24, 2020 |archive-date=April 23, 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160423182620/http://www.skysound.com/projects/the-angry-birds-movie/ |url-status=live }}
