An Angry Birds Cartoon Series is Coming This Fall

Rovio has announced that they will be releasing a series of Angry Birds animations this fall, reports The Guardian.

"We're going to roll out a weekly animation series later this year of shortform content," said Rovio's head of animation Nick Dorra, at the MIPTV conference in Cannes.

The series will consist of 52 episodes lasting between two-and-a-half and three minutes each. "We're going to roll it out on all possible devices," said Dorra. "We're looking at building a video app for that, and we're also looking at partnerships and so on... We want to be on all screens."


In regards to the rumored Angry Birds movie, "It's in development, but it won't be out in 2013 or 2014", said Dorra. "You'll have to bide your time and first watch all of our shorts!"

Rovio recently acquired Finnish animation studio Kombo. The Helsinki-based studio strengthens Rovio's animation production capabilities, with the long-term goal of creating a world class powerhouse in animated entertainment.

Rovio has also just released Angry Birds Space which saw 10 million downloads in 3 days.
