Angry Birds 3 Cast Unveiled Ahead of Release

• The voice cast for The Angry Birds Movie 3 has expanded with new announcements.
• Returning voice actors include Jason Sudeikis as Red and Josh Gad as Chuck.
• Smosh founders Anthony Padilla and Ian Hecox are also confirmed to reprise their roles.

If there's a movie adaptation of a game that's been a surprise success, it's Angry Birds. I recall the initial skepticism when it was first announced—many thought bringing a mobile game to the big screen was a terrible, silly idea. Years later, however, the film is remembered fondly, and news of a third installment was met with genuine excitement.

Now, we have more details about the star-studded cast joining the project. Notably, Jason Sudeikis and Josh Gad are returning to voice Red and Chuck, respectively. They join a lineup of new talent that includes names like Keke Palmer and Psalm West.

For younger fans, the most exciting news might be the return of Smosh stars Anthony Padilla and Ian Hecox. Famous for their earlier work with Smosh, they've enjoyed a resurgence as the channel evolved into an ensemble comedy platform in recent years.

Flying through the air

One interesting point is the relative lack of 'traditional' voice actors in the Angry Birds films. But given that the franchise didn't have a pre-established vocal cast to begin with, it makes perfect sense to recruit major stars for these roles.

Speaking from my own experience, the original Angry Birds Movie was slightly after my time. Over the years, though, public opinion has noticeably warmed toward it, especially when compared to other game-based films like The Emoji Movie. The Angry Birds Movie 3 is currently scheduled for release on December 23, 2026.
