First up, two images from the Clint Eastwood director “American Sniper” starring Joshua Jac…er, Bradley Cooper.
Next, a first look a the “Angry Birds” movie.
The main trio of Angry Birds will be led by Jason Sudeikis (Horrible Bosses, We’re the Millers) as Red, a bird with a temper, with Josh Gad (Frozen) as the speedy Chuck and Danny McBride (This is the End, “Eastbound & Down”) voicing the volatile Bomb.
Supporting these three comedy superstars is Bill Hader (Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs) as a pig, Maya Rudolph (Bridesmaids) as Matilda and Peter Dinklage (“Game of Thrones”) will play Mighty Eagle.
