Arriving via carrier pigeon email, the press release announcing the names involved (and the characters they're playing) is a thing of joy, so here are a few select excerpts to tantalise and enthrall. Warning: this will weird you out a bit.
"Jason Sudeikis (Horrible Bosses, We're The Millers) will lead the cast as Red, a bird with a temper problem. Josh Gad, in his first animated role since Frozen, plays speedy Chuck, and Danny McBride (This Is The End, Eastbound & Down) portrays the volatile Bomb."
"Bill Hader (Saturday Night Live, Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs) has joined the pork side, Maya Rudolph (Bridesmaids, The Maya Rudolph Show) will play Matilda, and Peter Dinklage (Game of Thrones, X-Men: Days Of Future Past) will play the legendary Mighty Eagle."
In the supporting roles, Keegan-Michael Key (Comedy Central’s Key & Peele), Kate McKinnon (Emmy nominee for Saturday Night Live), Tony Hale (Emmy winner for Veep, Arrested Development), Ike Barinholtz (Neighbors, The Mindy Project), Hannibal Buress (Broad City, Neighbors), Cristela Alonzo (ABC’s upcoming Cristela), Jillian Bell (22 Jump Street), Danielle Brooks (Orange is the New Black), Grammy nominee and Latin music sensation Romeo Santos, and YouTube stars Smosh (Ian Andrew Hecox and Anthony Padilla), who have over 30 million YouTube subscribers, will bring an extra kick to this angry flock.
