The Angry Birds Movie 2 Story
Years after the destruction of Piggy Island, Red is now the protector of Bird Island, defending it against King Leonard Mudbeard and his pigs, who have engaged in a prank war against the birds after rebuilding their home. One day, a massive ice ball from the nearby Eagle Island crashes into the sea near Piggy Island, prompting the pigs to seek a permanent truce with the birds. Zeta, the leader of Eagle Island, is furious with her icy surroundings and plans to seize both islands by launching ice balls from a powerful superweapon, forcing the inhabitants to evacuate.
During a speed dating event organized by his friends Chuck and Bomb, Red meets Silver, Chuck’s sister and an engineering student, who tells him she finds him incompatible. Meanwhile, Zoe, the daughter of Red’s classmate Terence and teacher Matilda, loses the eggs that contain her unborn sisters while playing with her friends, Vincent and Samantha, and they set out to recover them. Leonard persuades Red to form an alliance, bringing together Chuck, Bomb, Silver, Mighty Eagle, and Leonard’s new assistant Courtney. Their secret meeting in Mighty Eagle’s cave is interrupted when Zeta’s superweapon strikes Eagle Mountain, alarming the other birds on Bird Island. As the group, now joined by the pig gadgeteer Garry, embarks on a submarine journey to Eagle Island, Red reassures the other birds that evacuation isn’t necessary. Upon arrival, Mighty Eagle reveals that Zeta was once his fiancée, but he abandoned her out of cowardice before he takes flight, leaving the group to confront the impending threat.
