She really knew where she wanted to take this character. She has so much experience not only in front of the camera but also behind the camera working on her show. She’s incredibly smart, and she knows what she wants. She was really fun to work with because she’s incredibly smart. How was it working with Rachel, and what makes her right for this role? Brown… and I think the MVP is Rachel Bloom, who voices Silver, Chuck’s sister. You’ve got Tiffany Haddish in this, Awkwafina, Sterling K. JM: And that villain, Zeta, is voiced by Leslie Jones. And that for us led to a lot of great comedy and conflict and trust issues – and I think ultimately made for a very fun movie. The birds and pigs realize that their only hope for survival is if they came-up to work together and take the villain on. And it’s a villain that no one has ever really seen or heard from before. And that’s where we really felt the fun challenge to do something different.Īnd that really led to the big idea of the movie, which is that we introduce a brand new villain. We knew that a lot of people would be expecting the sequel to “Angry Birds” to be more battles between birds and pigs and the continuation of everything people have experienced in all the “Angry Birds” games. But on the movie itself, one of our big goals was to surprise the audience. This was such a fun experience, and we had such a great time making this movie. John Cohen: My first goal was to have the chance to work with Thurop, who I’ve been a fan of for so many years. What were some of your goals going into “Angry Birds 2” from working on the first one? JM: John, you’ve been in the animation producing world for a while as well. I’ve helped Aron out on some movies over the last few years in a really minor way – but enough I guess that I earned his trust and John’s trust to direct this one. He was the producer of that on one of the many iterations in its lifetime over at DreamWorks. I worked with him on the “Trolls” movie for a little while. JM: And Aron Warner was part of the original “Shrek”, so a real animation history with him. And the whole team was really the best team you could ask for. It’s been amazing working with John and Aron Warner, our other producer. Obviously, a lot of it’s the same process – just a lot more money and a lot more time, and in a lot of ways a lot more pressure on every single joke. It’s such a different process than making TV. Jackson Murphy: Thurop, this is your feature film directorial debut. Director Thurop Van Orman (creator of TV’s “Flapjack”) and producer John Cohen (“Despicable Me”) are excited for audiences to return to Bird Island and meet a whole flock of new characters. Sony Pictures Animation’s follow-up to their Oscar-winning Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is The Angry Birds Movie 2, the sequel to the 2016 hit – based on the phenomenon mobile game franchise.
