As "The Angry Birds Movie" makes it way to theaters worldwide, Mighty Eagle voice actor Peter Dinklage reveals his ideal Angry Birds character and why he might be the original angry bird.
In an interview with Channel News Asia, it was revealed that apart from playing the Mighty Eagle in the "The Angry Birds Movie," Peter Dinklage is one of the millions who have downloaded the game. In addition, he admitted that he probably was "the original angry bird."
Meanwhile, co-star Josh Gad, who plays super-speedy bird Chuck, interrupted Dinklage by reminding him he did not seem angry most of the time and neither was he a bird. Shortly after, the 46-year-old actor responded "Really? You didn't know me in my youth! I couldn't fly but I was quite angry!"
The thespian's response sparked interest as to what type of Angry Birds character the actors would possibly create given the chance. With eagerness, Dinklage reportedly said that he wanted to create an Angry Birds character who is good with interviews and has the power to promote films. He said, "Because I would be so good at it. And so precise in my thoughts on how to promote a movie."
On the other hand, Gadd was rather more comfortable to say he wanted to be a Singaporean Toucan who could ire everyone because of his beauty that is a torture to look at.
Moving on, Gad has a very positive opinion of Dinklage's Mighty Eagle "The Angry Birds Movie." In an interview with ComingSoon.net, the "Frozen" star and the voice of Chuck thinks the Mighty Eagle part of the "Game of Thrones" superstar was reportedly hilarious and that Dinklage was really fit for the role. He then adds that scene in which there was swimming in the "stream" was one of his favorite segment in the movie.
Besides Peter Dinklage and Josh Gad, Maya Rudolph, Keegan-Michael Key, Sean Penn and Danny McBride among others are part of the voice cast as Matilda, Judge Peckinpah, Terrence and Bomb respectively. The main character Red, who has temper issues is voiced by comedian Jason Sudeikis. Country singer Blake Shelton has also rendered his voice to bad piggies Earl.
