“It was a great opportunity for comedy and to open up a new island in the Angry Birds world.” “I love the fact that the birds and pigs have to team up together to fight this new villain Zeta, who lives on frigid Eagle Island,” Oswald says. Tired of her frozen Eagle Island digs, Zeta is determined to make both Bird Island and Piggy Island her new tropical paradise. In Angry Birds 2, former enemies, angry birds and piggies, must work together, forging an unsteady truce to save their homes from a common threat, the gangly ice queens Zeta, played by Leslie Jones. Is it going to be more of that game play battle-type stuff? We wanted to do the opposite. Then, the sequel was a great opportunity to expand the universe, introduce new characters and do something unexpected and enterprising. “The first film was really about bringing the game to life. “I’ve had the opportunity to work on both films, so I've kind of seen how the production design needs have changed, moving from the first film to the sequel,” he explains.
