The Sony studio making the movie about Angry Birds is the same team behind The Smurfs and Hotel Transylvania. The movie will be in 3D and is slated for 2016.
Rovio Entertainment CEO Mikael Hed:
“Sony impressed us with their great attitude, determination, and professionalism. They convinced us that we have found the right partners and team to help us market and distribute our first motion picture.”
Michael Lynton, chairman and CEO of Sony Pictures Entertainment:
“Every studio in town would love to add ‘Angry Birds’ to their slate. There are few titles out there that bring this kind of excitement, brand awareness and built-in audience to the table.”
